Libertarianism for Beginners
6th July 2016
John Stossel gets back to basics.
A century ago in the U.S., government at all levels took up about 8 percent of the economy. Now it takes up about 40 percent. It regulates everything from the size of beverage containers to what questions must not be asked in job interviews.
How can people be expected to keep up with it all?
Government has two jobs:
- Keep people safe.
- Keep people honest.
Everything else is statist bullshit.
