A couple of weeks ago, I was asked to write a brief introduction to Libertarianism for the local magazine, the Fayetteville FEED.

There is an alternative to this mess and the endless cycle of economic recessions, wars and the loss of your inalienable rights and civil liberties. That alternative is libertarianism...

Quotes

The worst evils which mankind has ever had to endure were inflicted by bad governments. The state can be and has often been in the course of history the main source of mischief and disaster. -- Ludwig von Mises
