Description

Welcome to Libertarian Counterpoint, the show where we challenge the status quo and expose the lies and hypocrisy of the political establishment. In this episode, we'll be discussing some of the most important and controversial topics of our time.




- Social Security and Medicare are broke by any honest accounting standards. According to a recent report by Reason magazine, these two programs are facing a combined unfunded liability of $72 trillion over the next 75 years. That's more than three times the size of the entire US economy. How can we reform these unsustainable entitlements and protect the future generations from a massive debt burden?




- Debt ceiling bill passes in House. The House of Representatives voted to suspend the debt limit until December 2022, allowing the federal government to borrow more money without any fiscal restraint. The bill now heads to the Senate, where it faces opposition from some Republicans who want to use the debt ceiling as leverage to cut spending. Is this bill a necessary compromise or a reckless gamble with our nation's creditworthiness?




- Libertarian Javier Milei could be next President of Argentina. In a surprising turn of events, Javier Milei, a fiery libertarian economist and politician, has emerged as a frontrunner in the upcoming presidential election in Argentina. Milei has gained popularity by blasting the corrupt and incompetent socialist government and advocating for free markets, individual rights and sound money. Could he be the next Ron Paul of Latin America?




- Robert F Kennedy Jr. for President? The son of the late Senator Robert F Kennedy and nephew of President John F Kennedy has announced his intention to run for president in 2024 as an independent candidate. Kennedy is known for his environmental activism and his controversial views on vaccines, 5G and COVID-19. He claims to represent a new political movement that transcends the left-right spectrum and challenges the corporate and media elites. Is he a visionary leader or a dangerous conspiracy theorist?




- The left-right spectrum is mostly meaningless. A recent article by Reason magazine argues that the traditional political spectrum of left versus right is outdated and misleading in today's complex and diverse world. The article suggests that a better way to understand politics is to use a multidimensional approach that considers different aspects of human freedom, such as economic, social, personal and civil liberties. Do you agree with this analysis? How do you define your political philosophy?




These are some of the topics we'll be covering in this episode of Libertarian Counterpoint. Stay tuned for an engaging and enlightening discussion that you won't find anywhere else on TV.
