The predator class learned many lessons during the Vietnam war, one of which was to make sure students never again had the financial security to engage in mass protests. That and buying up the media to more directly manufacture consent, and keeping all other working people too desperate to organize. All going according to plan.
This applies to every law and regulation that benefits the majority, and is specifically why the oligarchy coopted libertarianism in the 1970’s; to promote environmental destruction, and the mass exploitation of the working class, under the guise of “freedom” (eg deregulation).
Prior to the massive sustained investment from nepo baby sociopaths, like the Koch bros, libertarianism was considered a leftist, progressive, ideology; just as anti too-big-to-fail corporate-monopoly as it was anti-government. Hippies were far more libertarian-socialist than they were authoritarian-communist.
