Liberalism

Egalitarian liberals think that basic liberties can be violated in the quest for equality and even that "the natural duty to promote justice straightforwardly implies a duty to establish states."

Governments never have respected rights of free speech. Today, they restrict freedom of speech and of the press and promote falsehoods in the name of "protecting truth."

Totalitarian societies do not become that way overnight. There are recognizable signs and stages which show how a society slides into that abyss.

The Great Reset usually is framed as the reestablishment of democratic social principles. In reality, it's an attempt to do away with the last vestiges of classical liberalism.

There are two competing visions for the Right. 

Bob Murphy talks inflation and why suddenly everyone is an expert, and then why Jim Rogers says buy a motorcycle and see the world: It's a great way to get an education. Jeff and Peyton Gouzien discuss big questions like liberalism and illiberalism in the twentieth century and David Gordon reviews The Lords of Easy Money, a thoroughgoing critique of the subversive power of the Fed.

The nonaggression principle and negative freedom are not the same thing. Isaiah Berlin's work shows the key difference between them.

We will win. But how long will it take, and at what price victory?
