Libertarianism: Introductory Course

“Taxation is theft.” You’ve probably seen this slogan online and thought it was a joke, or maybe just rude. But behind it lies a serious question that philosophers have debated for centuries: Where does the government’s authority over you actually come from?

Libertarianism starts with a deceptively simple idea — you own yourself. Your body, your time, and the things you create with your effort belong to you, not to a king, a parliament, or a majority vote. From that one principle, an entire framework unfolds: what rights really mean, why markets work better than mandates, and how newly printed money quietly moves wealth from the many to the few.

This course isn’t about party politics or left-versus-right. It’s about tracing a line of thought from “I own myself” all the way to “so that’s how inflation actually works.”

Best enjoyed after the Bitcoin and Austrian Economics courses — but works just fine on its own if this is where your curiosity starts.
