I hereby officially announce my candidacy for President of the United States as a Republican in the 2028 election. Sure, I'm 22, an anarchist, a Chinese citizen, and on a student visa, but, as Malatesta said, "Impossibility never prevented anything from happening." (1/3)

Voting for Republican candidates should be a no-brainer for free-market-oriented voters based solely on policy. The problem is that most of said candidates are Trump sycophants, at least on the federal level.

I still think a Republican trifecta would be good because 1) we can get tax-cutting laws like the OBBBA passed (if Rs want to do another tax cut), 2) it would reduce Dem seats in case Dems win 2028, 3) Dems are embracing socialism, and 4) most bad Trump policies are executive.

The two tendencies that have influenced me the most are libertarian conservatism and left-wing market anarchism.

I'm feeling so hyped for Taiwan content in Millennium Dawn 2.1. Taiwan content is long overdue, and I'll be playing it as soon as it comes out.

I have signed Prof. Beito's petition in my capacity as National Chair of the Republican Anarchist Caucus, and I urge everybody to sign it too.
Judge Andrew P. Napolitano has now joined the list of signers on a petition endorsing a federal Israel-Palestine based on the Swiss canton model. The others endorsers include Juan Cole, Deirdre McCloskey, and Ray McGovern. petitions.com/statement_of_s…

Don Lavoie is a name that should be more widely remembered among liberal political economists. His life sadly was cut short by cancer, yet his legacy lived on in his students as well as the record of his written work. Last night one of those former students of Don - Virgil Storr - delivered a brilliant talk on Markets as Emancipators. Don stressed this point in his teaching and in personal conversation. I discuss this in my The Struggle for a Better World as well. Virgil’s talk was perhaps the best example I have seen delivering the core Lavoie message about markets as liberators from oppression.

I'm way too tired. I've already skipped the evening keynote address. I think I'm going to skip dinner too and get some rest.

Pauline Dixon makes a fascinating point: In India, individuals of lower social castes are routinely turned away and/or placed at the end of the queue by government hospitals and clinics. So, private entrepreneurs have started their own hospitals and clinics to serve lower castes.
