More on Laissez Faire Economics
2008-07-24 00:42:00 In the comments section, James Schipper makes some interesting comments about laissez faire economics and libertarianism in general. His comments are in italics, mine are follow in normal font.JS: Laissez-faire usually means short-term gain for a small minority and short-term pain for a large majority, medium-term gain for a larger minority and medium-term pain for a smaller majority and only long-term gain for the majority. RL: I don't agree with this at all. The case of neoliberalism seems to show us that the gains never do filter down to anyone below the top 20%. This is what the neoliberal advocates keep saying - Give it time, give it time. But no matter how much time you give it, it never seems to work. We are now 28 years into a neoliberal revolution in the US, and have things gotten any better for any larger majority?Of course not. Things just seem to get worse and worse. Neoliberalism only accomplishes massive wealth transfers from the bottom 80% to the top 20%. It's desig...

Christianity, Libertarianism, and Obama
2008-04-02 01:05:00 By Cameron ClarkI recently fielded a question from a very old friend on some ideologies and actions of mine that seem, at first glance, to be incongruent. When it was coupled with a heated and un-illustrious exchange (on my part) on The Porch, I found I needed to address it with my final post here. I was asked how I could be educated in Christian institutions, hold a "libertarian" platform, and support Barack Obama for President. Here is my reply:"That's a VERY good question!.....(omitted) as I was educated in some seriously conservative Christian schools, I witnessed some practices and attitudes that I believe are thoroughly un-Christian. Because of these mis-applied Christian ideologies, I think the establishment clause in the 1st amendment needs to be heavily enforced to keep the varying interpretations of scripture far away from the laws that govern this nation. I think separating church and state is the only way to keep all citizens, and Churches, of this nation free.As a libe...

Democrats to Raise Taxes By the Billions
2008-03-15 15:16:00 When the Democrats took over Congress in 2006, I saw this coming. I remember going to work the next day and having a couple guys laughing at me because I was a Republican and they were Democrats. I said, “You watch. Your taxes are gonna go through the roof.” “Well, what do you mean?” they asked. “You just watch.” I love being right, but in this particular instance, I really wish I were dead wrong: The Senate rejected calls from both parties’ presidential candidates to take an election-year break from pork-barrel spending as a Democratic-run Congress passed budget plans that would torpedo hundreds of billions of dollars in tax cuts won by President Bush. They had a chance to stop all earmarks, and not even the Republicans voted for it. Fiscal conservatism, my great Aunt Petunia: The practice of inserting “earmarked” spending into legislation is seen by lawmakers in both parties a birthright power of the purse awarded to Con...

Libertarianism from a liberal perspective
2008-01-19 14:27:00 John McGowan, in his book American Liberalism (2007, North Carolina University Press), gives a perfect definition of libertarianism (well, at least from a liberal perspective):"We all must submit to the harsh realities of the market because that is the way to secure freedom – a freedom that will be lost if make any deliberate attempt to better our lot in life. Under such terms, what is freedom good for? Work hard, compete against all others, eke out a living if you are lucky, and die. But at least you can know that you were free. Others didn’t impose their will on you, only the existential conditions of human life and the market did. That’s just the way things are’ there’s no one to blame. So buck up and face it like a man." (pp. 115-116)And then people wonder why less than 1% of political scientists and sociologists are libertarian! It should also be noted that the above is based upon an understanding of libertarianism as expressed through thinkers such as Friedrich Van H...
