If there’s one leitmotif in Jacob Hornberger’s commentary at the Future of Freedom Foundation over the years, it’s that unlimited accumulation of capital by the super-rich is the pathway to prosperity. That musical phrase received its latest tinny, tinkling iteration in “The Importance of Capital” (March 13): I was recently walking through a construction site…
In a recent interview with Jordan Peterson, Elon Musk stated that one of his values was “meritocracy, as much meritocracy as possible, so you get ahead as a function of your skill, and nothing else.” “Meritocracy” is often framed by liberals as a thing that would be good if we actually had it, as opposed…

Di Kevin Carson. Articolo originale: AI and the Real Hard Pill to Swallow, del 14 agosto 2024. Traduzione italiana di Enrico Sanna. Il sedicente “tecno-ottimista” Dylan Allman, in un articolo su Foundation for Economic Education (“The Ego vs. the Machine,” 24 febbraio), liquida gli scettici dell’intelligenza artificiale (IA) come persone dall’ego ferito. “Più o meno…
At Foundation for Economic Education (“The Ego vs. the Machine,” February 24), self-described “techno-optimist” Dylan Allman dismisses recent controversies over AI as a simple matter of wounded egos. “They feel, on some instinctual level, that if machines can do what they do — only better, faster, and more efficiently — then what value do they…

In the previous installment of this column, I discussed Walter Block’s repeated defense of “voluntary slavery contracts” as one example of his long record of defending economic phenomena as “voluntary,” regardless of the role of background or systemic violence in making them possible. But it didn’t stop there. Consider his defenses, just within the past…

Em certo sentido, Walter Block está bem inserido na tradição das polêmicas do libertarianismo de direita/anarco-capitalismo, na medida em que o mesmo esconde as relações de…
In one sense, Walter Block is very much in the tradition of right-libertarian and anarcho-capitalist polemics, insofar as he hides power relationships and coercive institutions behind a facade of “free exchange” and “voluntary contract.” In another, however, he is much worse. Anarcho-capitalists, traditionally, have focused on convincing the average person that a stateless regime centered…

At The Freeman, Cody Cook asks “Was Jesus a Friend to Big Business?” He begins by quoting several of the many prima facie condemnations of the wealthy in the Gospels, and notes their troubling implications for the sort of libertarianism (pro-wealthy, pro-business, and pro-big business) both he and The Freeman represent. With such strong statements…
