One of my greatest concerns and current primary quest involves all of us who love liberty being a minority in times of increasing popularity of socialism and population control. Please help me spread this message.
What if being "highly independent" can make it difficult for us to see the value of strong relationships and our "me-first" attitude, completely logical and useful, in reality, can be supplemented with even just a bit of "practical empathy" at times in order to enhance relationships?
Why care? Here's one example:
Growing restrictions to access digital and physical markets are another reason libertarians benefit by expanding quality and number of connections. Imagine the near future when grocery stores require proof of vaccination and digital money, we'll want a network of libertarians to trade with.
I wrote the following article as a starting point to begin an exploration of these ideas and to hopefully, stimulate thought along a route of finding ways we can work together with more efficiency and even how "practical empathy" can increase the inner strength of us as individuals, but also the depth, strength, and number of our relationships with others.
