Capitalism (Libertarian columnists)
Capitalism is an economic system in which wealth, and the means of producing wealth, are privately owned.[1][2] Through capitalism, the land, labor, and capital are owned, operated, and traded, without force or fraud, by private individuals either singly or jointly,[3][4] and investments, distribution, income, production, pricing and supply of goods, commodities and services are determined by voluntary private decision in a market economy.

Mortgage Anyone?
by John Kozy (centrist liberal libertarian)
Published: September 30, 2009
Why are the standard terms for mortgages 15 and 30 years? Could it be because downturns in the American economy have occurred on an average of once every 14.5 years? When a buyer defaults on a loan after paying on it for 14 years, the lender gets the house for free, sells it again, and nets a small fortune or an investment of zero. Wouldn't you like to find a way of doing that?

Jake Towne's Bailout and Corporatism Plank
by Jake Towne, the Champion of the Constitution (libertarian)
Published: September 16, 2009
"I stand for the Restoration of the Republic, a return of Honest Money to We the People, and a swift end to the Global War of Terror. I hope you are standing beside me as this battle is joined with our domestic enemies, our very own government... If those in power actually intend the best for the American people, but their behavior is so contrary, so immoral, and so unconstitutional with my positions, the government ceases to be my government in all but name. In my writings I unceasingly demonstrate that the federal government no longer heeds the Constitution with any type of respect. An unconstitutional government is not my "friend" or "protector" or "mommy;" it is my bitter enemy." - My personal vow from my October 3, 2008 article on the passage of the bailout bill

It's Not Capitalism
by Steven McDuffie (libertarian)
Published: May 4, 2009
This article is a letter I sent to the Pueblo Chieftain in response to an article they ran wherein Monica Moorehead, managing editor of the left-leaning newspaper Workers World, claimed that economic system in the US is a "capitalist" system in which tax-payer money is handed over to multi-billion dollar corporations. My rebuttal is concise but poignant.
