The Fallacy of the “Public Sector”

[This article is excerpted from Economic Controversies, chapter 21, “The Fallacy of the ‘Public Sector’” (2011). It originally appeared in the New Individualist Review (Summer, 1961): 3–7. Editor’s note: Various media outlets are reporting that the Trump administration has cut more than 100,000 federal jobs in recent days. The total may even be greater than 200,000.

The Panic of 1819: Rothbard v. Browning

The Panic of 1819 was one of the first major economic and financial crises in American history. The panic led to widespread bank failures, unemployment, and distress, particularly in the western states.

Now, Rothbard finally has some company in Andrew Browning’s The Panic of 1819: The First Great Depression. And...

Osama bin Laden’s Secret Weapon: Economic Literacy

While acknowledging his great evils, future strategists and historians will one day likely recognize Osama bin Laden’s strategic acumen. With minimal resources or technology, Osama bin Laden managed to create immense socioeconomic damage and nearly destroy both of his main enemies—the “godless” Communist Soviet Union and the Zionism-supporting United States. Bin Laden achieved this using only one simple weapon, a basic understanding of economics,...

Truth and Reconciliation: Be Careful What You Wish For

An early mentor once warned me, “If the public knew the truth, the markets would be cut in half.” Decades later the stock market has soared tenfold, but so has the deceit.We have a new administration coming in with a central promise of “truth.” Trump has placed what some call “radicals” in charge of key agencies and departments. The good news: this bold strategy may be the only way to cut through the noise to find the truth. The challenge: the...

The Technological Revolution

The technological revolution—spearheaded by advances in robotics and generative artificial intelligence (AI)—is poised to reshape industries, redefine job roles, and challenge traditional labor markets. While the disruptive potential of these innovations raises concerns about widespread job displacement, the evidence suggests a more nuanced reality: these technologies can complement human labor, create new job opportunities, and enhance...

Robert Paul Wolff on Anarchism

The death last month of the philosopher Robert Paul Wolff is a fitting occasion to call to the attention of libertarians, and particularly libertarian anarchists, his short book In Defense of Anarchism, originally published in 1970 and issued in a revised edition in 1976. In the book, Wolff argues that the state is illegitimate.To understand his argument, we first need to know what he means by a state. He holds that “the state is a group of persons...

Using Your Tax Dollars to Support Terrorists and Nazis

This is not a joke. This is not hyperbole. This is not clever framing and not a fringe conspiracy. This is a verifiable reality that many Americans do not know, but ought to know, especially as they cheer on US foreign policy actions that morally undermine everything America stands for.World War II and 9/11 are often given as decisive and conclusive historical examples that justify US foreign policy: We had to fight the Nazis and we had to fight...
