For a Christian/Libertarian Alliance. Kennedy Edwards & Keith Knight

by | Apr 24, 2022

… it is hardly “charity” to take wealth by force and hand it over to someone else. Indeed, this is the direct opposite of charity, which can only be an unbought, voluntary act of grace. Compulsory confiscation can only deaden charitable desires completely, as the wealthier grumble that there is no point in giving to charity when the State has already taken on the task.

Murray N. Rothbard, Ph.D., Man, Economy, and State with Power and Market, p. 1319

Kennedy Edwards is the co-host of The State of Ohio podcast and Libertarian Party of Ohio, Trumbull County Chair.
