"If You Can Dream -- and Not Make Dreams Your Master..."
Published May 19, 2011 in Persuasion by Michael Cloud
"When we achieve freedom, the economy will flourish," the libertarian speaker began. "Prosperity will be common. Poverty will be eradicated. I can hardly wait..."

Most libertarian scholars forget this crucial element. Most libertarian writers leave out this key factor. So do most libertarian candidates. Probably you do, too. We don't overlook it once or twice. We do it regularly. Repeatedly. What are we forgetting, neglecting, and leaving out of our libertarian conversations? Why does it matter? Benefits. We're forgetting to tell people the *benefits* of our libertarian proposals. The specific, concrete, direct benefits to them. The benefits to their families, friends, neighbors, and co-workers.
