I care for kids, families, the sick and the elderly, working class, middle class, and every American. To end poverty and advance the American Dream, I am Libertarian Girl.
In response to my previous post on true libertarianism, I received a bit of positive feedback and a majority of commenters who simply didn’t get it.
To those who would make an argument like Anonymous on the post – Who has decreed that government force should only protect human liberty? Furthermore, how do you define human, [...]
You may have noticed that most of my recent posts are animal-related. I’ve been a vegetarian for a long time, but I’ve become more interested in these issues after looking more into it and realizing just how bad it is for these defenseless creatures– who collectively suffer what amounts to a Holocaust every hour on [...]
In addition to Honest Abe’s 200th birthday, it’s also Darwin Day, the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth.
Some libertarians may view Abraham Lincoln as a tyrant or a criminal (even a litmus test for whether or not someone is libertarian!), but I can’t agree. Maybe it’s because I’m from Illinois. At the same time, libertarians [...]
After watching a movie, I always read a few film reviews of it to gauge others’ opinion compared to my own.
After watching Harold and Maude last night, I found a review that ran in Film Quarterly in 1972 and made me think twice about the movie I just saw: “Maude philosophizes continuously about living [...]
Note: Libertarian Girl is off to Europe, but while she’s away she’ll be updating with previously written posts about politics and life in the places she’s visiting. She’ll soon be back to her regularly scheduled Libertarian Girl programming.
Today I’ll be flying from Venice into Paris, where I don’t think I can escape from seeing the [...]

The Stephansdom cathedral is one of the central sights in Vienna. As the center of commerce and home [...]

Today, I head from two extremes: venturing from the very Eastern-European Bratislava, Slovakia into Vienna, Austria, the capital [...]
Chris Tame, the founder of Britain’s Libertarian Alliance, died two years ago today. As is so often the case, Sean Gabb says it best.
“But he has now been dead two years. No one can possibly replace him as a centre of gravity for the British libertarian movement. At first or second hand, he inspired every [...]
“Give me the child until he is seven and I will give you the man.”
Why can’t libertarians “brainwash” kids, too?
We’re at a disadvantage. It’s clear that Democrats and Republicans have been actually brainwashing American kids for years, and kids often initially follow the political views of their parents (even Hillary Clinton was a Goldwater Girl!) [...]
Libertarians believe in individual freedom– life, liberty, property, the pursuit of happiness, and all that. This can often be accomplished through ownership of private property. What about freedom for trees, though?
I present to you The Tree That Owns Itself, in Athens, Georgia.
One unfortunate aspect about The Tree That Owns Itself is that, while it [...]
