    "Y...you mean that the Chinese are NOT the ones paying the extortion imposed on someone because they traded with a foreigner?! 😨". A tariff is literally the State extorting DOMESTIC importers... wish that more MAGA people realized this.

    LP National claims Trump nominates Libertarian

    LP National finally did today what we all knew they would eventually do. They're claiming Trump has in fact nominated a Libertarian to his cabinet, and that Libertarian is... RFK, Jr., who is technically a party member from back in May when he sought our nomination for president for 5 minutes.

    The claim via email:

    We are thrilled to announce a momentous achievement for the Libertarian Party: President-Elect Donald Trump has officially nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a proud Lifetime Member of the Libertarian Party, as the next Secretary of Health and Human Services.

    This is a groundbreaking moment for our party and all Americans who value transparency, personal choice, and medical freedom. With Kennedy at the helm of HHS, we have a historic opportunity to shape health policy in a libertarian way.

    Help us celebrate this opportunity with your best donation now! >>>

    Here’s how RFK Jr. can use libertarian ideas to transform American health policy:

    Transparency and Informed Consent

    Kennedy is committed to making government health agencies more transparent. By opening federal health databases to the public, Americans will be empowered to make informed decisions about their own health.

    Ending Corporate Influence and Regulatory Reform

    He aims to remove the conflicts of interest and corruption plaguing agencies like the FDA. By cutting financial ties between regulators and the industries they oversee, Kennedy wants to ensure that public health decisions prioritize the individual.

    Freedom of Choice Over Mandates

    In true libertarian fashion, Kennedy opposes mandates for treatments or vaccines. He champions individual autonomy and evidence-based dialogue over government and corporate media compulsion.

    Defunding Corrupt Studies

    He plans to defund studies influenced by big pharmaceutical and agricultural interests, paving the way for a health system rooted in actual science.

    Holding Bad Actors Accountable

    Kennedy plans to eliminate government protections that shield bureaucrats and big corporations from consequences for their actions that harm Americans.

    We are proud to see a Libertarian Party voice at the forefront of one of the most abusive areas of government and hope RFK Jr. will choose libertarian solutions over federal control.

    It's kind of ironic. Early on, I thought for sure they'd claim that some non-party-member who is very slightly small-L libertarian is Trump's token libertarian, but they actually went the opposite way and are saying it's RFK who is not libertarian in the slightest but is technically a party member.

    How tariffs work: "You purchase this good or service from a 'foreigner', therefore you have to pay this fee or you go to jail". Such imposed extortions make the most value-generating courses of action more expensive, and thus increase prices. I wish that more people would realize this.

    As a new voter, I feel this sense of loss of a Libertarian Party I never got to experience.

    I'm new to Libertarianism. In fact, this election was my first ever presidential election I could vote in. (I'm 21)

    I looked into the platforms of Kamala Harris, Donald Trump, Jill Stein, and Chase Oliver. I read all of them thoroughly, and decided that Oliver's was the best choice. And I actually got interested in the Libertarian Party, so I looked up everything I could on Libertarian Reddits and Discords and quickly got into the AnCap subreddits as well to find books for further reading on the subject matter.

    I actually wanted to find something more moderate, like something this subreddit would advocate for, but I was new and knew literally nothing beyond the Libertarian Party & Chase Oliver's website.

    So I decided to read this pretty aggressively and am almost done with the first row of everything.

    I recognize how radically libertarian it is. I understand it in principle and see even how its most radical ideas can play out. But I also recognize that perfect is the enemy of good, and while I refuse to compromise, (i.e. vote for a lesser of 2 evils) I'd gladly vote for candidates who will significantly bring progress to liberalizing the U.S, whether they view themselves as a Classical Liberal or Anarcho-Capitalist.

    I also want to get involved with the party IRL and talk to some members of the Libertarian Party online.

    But I feel like when I actually engage with pretty much anyone in Libertarian/AnCap social media... it's weird.

    • First of all, there's just straight up conservatives. These usually get called out though.
    • It also feels like there's conservatives who are more covert. Like they'll be up-in-arms about anti-libertarian Democrat policies, but when socially progressive things come up they'll be silent. And also use gay as an insult lol.
    • People who cheered for Trump winning while endlessly criticizing Chase Oliver and the Libertarian Party.
    • There's also just people who are just so disillusioned with everything and hate Democracy that they don't care about voting, or making progress, or doing anything really. Stuff like "If you vote you're perpetuating the evil State and all States are inherently evil, you are only prolonging the suffering."

    The fourth point is especially prevalent to me. It just feels... pessimistic. I'm known for being big, loud, and hot-tempered, but I still think of myself as an optimistic person who wants to participate in change, make some friends and who knows what in the Libertarian Party.

    I really like this subreddit and I feel like there's intelligent discussion here that pertains to Libertarianism and also about modern-day politics. And when I scroll back and see stuff about Jo Jorgensen, Gary Johnson, and whatnot, I felt like libertarianism was a greater cause and felt more like an actual political movement than this doomerish anti-statist religion.

    I guess I just want to get more in touch with the modern Libertarian Party rather than ultraradical doomers I see on Discord.on Reddit What are some online spaces, good books not in the image I sent, etc?

    What was the greatest win for liberty in 2024?

    Now that the year is coming to a close I wanted to ask people here what they thought the greatest win for liberty this year has been. My pick is for Kamala Harris losing the 2024 US POTUS election. Note that this does not mean that I think Trump winning it is necessarily a win for liberty, he definitely has his problems as well.

    In a more literal sense the WNBA's New York Liberty finally getting that elusive first championship after 28 seasons could be considered a win for liberty, even if New York Liberty is something of an oxymoron these days.

    Thoughts?

    Inspiration from Argentina--libertarians and anti-werewolf procedures.

    Who will fight the werewolves without government? Last stand arguments against Libertarian ideals.

    In my home state of California, Chase Oliver lost to an actual communist.

    I voted for RFK, sorry!

    After Banning Public Discussion A Few Weeks Ago, The LNC Business List Has Now Seemingly Been Deleted

    The old link with all content apparently deleted: https://groups.google.com/g/lnc-business-list-public

    LP.org provides a new link, which has no content: https://groups.google.com/g/lnc-public

    McArdle actually campaigned on the the pre-Mises LNC not being transparent. And now she has banned public discussion and apparently deleted archives (Edit: and stripped membership reports of nearly all information.) And she just purged Harlos for disobeying her authoritah.

    At what point is she going to ask herself Am I the bad guy?

    I joined this sub a few days ago, somewhat new to Reddit as well. Do I belong here? How do I learn more about libertarianism? Why do I feel like my views aren’t shared here so far? Genuinely asking …

    Please don’t be a dick, I know this may come off as annoying.

    Since Trump won a majority of the popular vote it's as good a time as any to convince your left-leaning friends that democracy is simply tyranny of the majority. (x-post r/EndDemocracy)
