“Some libertarians are over-excited about Republican Donald Trump’s appointments of two liberal Democrats-turned-Trumpsters to his cabinet: Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., as head of the Department of Health and Human Services, and Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. They are also excited about Trump’s appointment of Republicans Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to Trump’s new federal Department of Government Efficiency. Amidst all the excitement over Donald Trump’s election, however, we libertarians must never lose sight of our goal: the achievement of a free society. A genuinely free society does not entail putting ‘better’ or ‘different’ people in charge of running the welfare-warfare state departments and agencies that have destroyed our freedom and produced our serfdom. Genuine freedom necessarily entails the abolition of all departments and agencies that infringe on freedom.” (11/19/24)
