So, I was gonna do a lot of research into seeing if the libertarian party actually proposes policy the way you suggested (in that corporate tyranny limits freedoms and therefore the libertarian party would be for policy that regulates corporations) but that’s a lot of work I don’t wanna do so instead I’m going to ask you if you’re aware of any such policy
By the way, I am very pro small business (I partner with some friends in our own business, actually), and recognize the sentiment of “if the government regulates the market, then who regulates the government”. I would like to see the government solve positive and negative externalities by providing contracts to small businesses, as well as have the government function as a competitor to big corporations. But from what I can tell, the libertarian party is libertarian in the sense that they think government should have no authority over the markets.
Again, I want it to be extremely accessible for individuals to take initiative in the market, but eveb right wing economists recognize that market failures exist for capitalism (such as in climate change or cybersec) and those negative externalities need to be addressed through some kind of regulation
We already have corporate tyranny. That’s why Lemmy exists.
But why do you think that about the American Libertarian party specifically?
