In his underappreciated work The Mystery of Banking, Murray Rothbard first explained how a regime of "free banking" would put strict limits on the ability of the private commercial banks to reduce their reserve ratios and inflate the money supply. Then Rothbard showed that the textbook operation of a central bank systematically neutralized the market's safeguards, and paved the way for credit expansion by a cartel of privileged private banks.The Mystery of Banking by Murray N.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 470. From my appearance on the Ayn Rand Fan Club with Scott Schiff and William. Their Shownotes: Patent attorney, Libertarian & Ayn Rand fan Stephan Kinsella joins William & Scott to talk about his history in the liberty world and his unique view that property rights should only pertain to physical things, and not to intellectual property. They also talk about Elon Musk opening his patents and the effects of IP law on AI. https://youtu.be/ax-QhyTGxw0?si=MyuQF4TfdeJQpQND Related: Classical Liberals, Libertarians, Anarchists and Others on Intellectual Property “The Death Throes of Pro-IP Libertarianism” (Mises Daily 2010) Yet another Randian recants on IP An Objectivist Recants on IP Pro-IP “Anarchists” and anti-IP Patent Attorneys Patent Lawyers Who Oppose Patent Law “The Four Historical Phases of IP Abolitionism” “The Origins of Libertarian IP Abolitionism” The Problem with Intellectual Property A Selection of my Best Articles and Speeches on IP Grok shownotes: Episode Overview In this episode of the Ayn Rand Fan Club, hosts Scott Schiff and William Swig engage in a thought-provoking discussion with Stephan Kinsella, a retired patent attorney, author, and libertarian thinker with a deep background in Ayn Rand's Objectivism. The conversation delves into Kinsella's journey from Objectivism to anarcho-capitalism, his critical stance on intellectual property (IP), and his broader views on libertarian principles. Recorded on August 18, 2025, the episode explores the philosophical and practical implications of IP laws, their impact on innovation, and their compatibility with property rights, while also touching on contemporary libertarian movements. Stephan Kinsella's Background and Philosophical Evolution Kinsella shares his personal journey, starting with his introduction to Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead in high school, which sparked his interest in Objectivism. Initially a “hardcore Objectivist” for eight years, he later gravitated toward Austrian economics and anarcho-capitalism, influenced by thinkers like Ludwig von Mises and Murray Rothbard. As a patent attorney in Houston, Texas, Kinsella began questioning the validity of IP laws in the early 1990s, finding existing justifications—whether utilitarian or Objectivist—unsatisfactory. His career as a patent lawyer, paradoxically, coincided with his growing opposition to the patent and copyright system, which he argues violates fundamental property rights. Critique of Intellectual Property Kinsella's primary critique of IP centers on its violation of tangible property rights. He argues that patents and copyrights impose non-consensual restrictions, or “negative servitudes,” on how individuals can use their own property, such as a printing press or factory. Drawing from libertarian principles, he contends that property rights should stem from homesteading or contract, not state-granted monopolies. Kinsella rejects both utilitarian arguments (e.g., IP promotes innovation) and natural rights arguments (e.g., creators inherently own their ideas), asserting that there's no empirical evidence for underproduction of creative works without IP and that the concept of owning labor or ideas is flawed, rooted in a misinterpretation of John Locke's labor theory. Trademark, Defamation, and Reputation Rights The discussion extends to trademark and defamation laws, which Kinsella also opposes. He explains that trademark law, originally intended to prevent consumer fraud, has evolved into a “reputation right” that protects brands like Rolex or Chanel from dilution, even absent deception. He argues that fraud laws already suffice to address deceptive practices, rendering trademark law unnecessary. Similarly, Kinsella rejects defamation laws, asserting there's no property right in one's reputation, as it's merely others' opinions. He distinguishes incitement to violence as a separate issue,

https://youtu.be/uVSz93KXms4 El socialismo no ha muerto, sino que ha evolucionado su discurso para adaptarse a nuestros tiempos. Ya no se presenta con los términos clásicos de "dictadura del proletariado" o "lucha de clases", sino que se ha renovado bajo conceptos aparentemente benignos como "equidad", "inclusión" y "justicia social". Sin embargo, como advirtieron pensadores como Ludwig von Mises y Friedrich Hayek, su objetivo fundamental permanece intacto: sustituir la libertad individual por el control colectivo.Esta transformación no es solo cosmética, sino estratégica. El socialismo contemporáneo ha desplazado su campo de batalla de la economía hacia la cultura, redefiniendo conceptos morales fundamentales y torciendo el lenguaje para emborronar los límites entre lo justo y lo injusto. Al exigir "justicia social", lo que realmente se está pidiendo es que el Estado corrija las decisiones libres de los individuos, limitando así su libertad.El nuevo socialismo opera negando la validez universal de la lógica y fragmentando la sociedad en grupos identitarios. Lo que antes se dividía en clases sociales, ahora se segmenta por raza, género u orientación sexual, trasladando la lucha de clases hacia nuevas categorías. Bajo esta perspectiva, no importa la argumentación o la verdad, sino la fidelidad al dogma colectivista.Como señaló Murray Rothbard, los socialistas han ganado terreno porque piensan estratégicamente y a largo plazo. Mientras las fuerzas del libre mercado se enfocan en la producción económica, la izquierda ha infiltrado sistemáticamente la cultura, la educación y el lenguaje, redefiniendo los valores morales de la sociedad.La única forma efectiva de combatir este fenómeno no es cediendo terreno o negociando con sus premisas, sino desenmascarando su verdadera raíz moral: el autoritarismo. El socialismo, más allá de ser un modelo económico fallido, representa una sociedad basada en la sumisión, el miedo y la obediencia. Frente a esto, debemos defender una visión clara de una sociedad libre, donde nadie imponga cómo pensar, qué decir o qué elegir.La batalla cultural actual no se trata solo de criticar el colectivismo en todas sus formas, sino de promover activamente un modelo superior: una sociedad fundamentada en la libertad individual, la propiedad privada y la responsabilidad personal.****

How do we define liberty? Hayek saw it as the absence of most (but not all) coercion, but that depends upon how one defines “coercion.” Murray Rothbard believed that Hayek was too willing to accept forms of coercion that were anti-freedom.Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/meaning-coercion-hayekian-philosophy

Lucas Engelhardt explores the economics of interventionism, tracing Ludwig von Mises's core argument that state interference in markets is both self-defeating and inherently unstable. Building on insights from Rothbard, Ikeda, and Higgs, Engelhardt examines why interventionism persists despite its failures, and whether we are, in fact, on the road to socialism or stuck in a stable middle ground.Recorded at the Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama, on July 25, 2025.Mises University is the world's leading instructional program in the Austrian School of economics, and is the essential training ground for economists who are looking beyond the mainstream.

In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, Jacob Winograd replays his appearance on the Libertarian Christian Podcast. In this engaging discussion, Jacob and host Cody Cook delve into the concept of Biblical Anarchy, examining its roots, definitions, and implications for modern Christian thought and governance. The conversation traverses a wide range of topics, including the interpretation of Romans 12-13, the role of self-ownership in Christian doctrine, critiques of property and governance, and the historical contributions of figures like Murray Rothbard. By dissecting both biblical texts and philosophical arguments, Jacob seeks to provide a nuanced understanding of a decentralized, non-coercive system of governance grounded in Christian beliefs - and to demonstrate why Anarchy isn't what people think it is.Full Episode Notes at BiblicalAnarchyPodcast.comThe Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.Audio Production by Podsworth Media.
