My First E-Book, "Learn About Liberty" Is Available Now- For Free!

I am hereby releasing my very first libertarian e-book, which is entitled: "Learn About Liberty," and I am proud to announce that it is absolutely free! Just click the link above or the image below to start reading it right here on THL. You don't even have to bother with PDFs or Word Documents.

While the book is available absolutely free of charge, your voluntarily payment for whatever value you get out of reading it is encouraged and welcome!

(More details on the concluding page of the book.)

Also please help me spread the word about it and promote it to the many people out there who are interested in learning about libertarianism. My hope is that this will be a powerful educational tool and resource for years to come, which is one reason I wanted to make it available on my website to anyone who wants to read it.

In the meantime, I will be working on my next e-book, which I am very excited about! Hopefully I will be ready to take orders for it by the end of this Spring. Even bigger than that- I am also working on a larger book that I hope to be pitching to agents and major publishers by mid-Summer. The working title for it is Bush 2.0.

While I'm doing all this work, I am also committed to keeping you up to date with solid libertarian news and commentary in the regular blog updates here at The Humble Libertarian. This is why your contributions and help are most welcome and deeply appreciated. Your donations buy me the time to advocate tirelessly and creatively for liberty.

Yours Truly,

The noose is tightening on liberty. The United States Congress is steadily headed to a place where those who owe money to the US government shall be treated criminally. This phenomenon is advancing domestically and now, increasingly, internationally. The first shot in this latest campaign took place in 2010 when US President Barack Obama signed into law The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act. It demanded, basically, that foreign banks withhold up to 30 percent of the income that an American abroad might earn. This bill isn't working so well because overseas banks are not cooperating (a state of affairs that was certainly expected). Thus, there is a need for something else: Senate Bill 1813, recently introduced by Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA). This bill, in part, states that taxpayers with unpaid taxes over US$50,000 may find their passports confiscated. This isn't criminal per se, but the IRS has recently made noises about "sharing" information with police a...

How To Cripple The Real Estate Market In Five Easy Steps

If the government and the banks had just allowed real estate prices drop to market equilibrium, we'd be out of this mess and housing would truly be affordable. But the government is determined to artificially prop up housing prices, whatever the cost to the economy. If you were head of Central Planning (howdy, Ben!) and were tasked with crippling the real estate market, here's what you would recommend. Choke the market and banking sector with zombie banks... Have the central bank (the Federal Reserve) buy up $1 trillion in toxic, impaired mortgages... Lower the rate that banks can borrow from the Fed to zero, and then pay the banks interest on all funds deposited at the Fed... Try to prop up the housing market by giving poor credit risk buyers loans with only 3% down... Load young people up with the equivalent of a mortgage in student loans... OK,let's see how our Organs of Central Planning are doing: check, check, check, check, check: a perfect score! they're...
