My Favorite Period in History

The Future of Freedom Foundation (US) 29/12/2022

My favorite period of history is the United States in the years 1870-1915.

Why?

Because it is the freest period in the history of man.

Was it a libertarian panacea? Nope. There were, in fact, infringements on liberty, such as the violation of women’s rights, the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1870, compulsory school-attendance laws in Massachusetts, and others.

But in terms of economic liberty, there is nothing that can match it.

Short but sweet with a nice ending.
