03/01/17 – Daniel McCarthy on “Reviving Libertarianism” in a time of political transformation on the left and right – The Scott Horton Show

by | Mar 1, 2017 | Interviews

Daniel McCarthy, editor-at-large of The American Conservative, discusses the poor showing of libertarian politicians in 2016, despite Ron and Rand Paul’s national prominence and two strongly disliked presidential candidates in Clinton and Trump; and how “virtue libertarianism” can revive the American commitment to liberty, keep the left and right more intellectually honest, and provide a means to punish vice and reward virtue without getting the government involved.
