Protests, Riots, and Liberty: Did Milei Cross the Line?

Brazil Plans to Tax the "Super Rich" — Starting at $100K a Year

The Brazilian government is selling its new tax reform as a win for the people—raising the income tax exemption while making the so-called “super rich” pay more. But who are these “super rich” exactly? Well, if you’re making around $100K a year, congratulations! You’re now a part of the elite, at least according to Brazil’s new tax plan. In this episode, we break down the hidden cost of this reform, the economic consequences of taxing productivity, and why even if the rich don’t leave, this policy will still fail. We look at historical examples from France, Sweden, and the U.S. to see what happens when governments try to “tax the rich”—and why it never works as planned. Finally, we discuss the libertarian take: If you want to be productive and keep the fruits of your labor, maybe it’s time to start looking for a place that won’t punish you for success.

Protests, Riots, and Liberty: Did Milei Cross the Line?

In this episode of The Libertario, we break down the recent protests in Argentina, where retirees demanding higher pensions clashed with the police—joined by an unexpected group: soccer fans. Were these protests a legitimate form of resistance, or were they an unjustified disruption? Did Milei overstep by using force, or was it necessary to restore order? More importantly, how do protests fit within libertarian principles—especially when public property is involved?

Made in America: The Price of US Tariffs on Canada & Mexico

In this episode, we dive into the latest round of tariffs the US has imposed on Canada and Mexico, slapping a 25% tax on goods crossing the border. The goal, according to the government, is to bring back jobs and boost the domestic economy — but does that actually work? Or do tariffs just end up being a hidden tax on American businesses and consumers?

No Censor on Our Shores: When You Find a Bigger Bully

In this episode, we dive into the clash between Brazil’s Supreme Court (STF) and global tech platforms over the “No Censor on Our Shores” Act. While governments claim to respect national sovereignty and free speech, they quickly shift gears and cry about how they defend national sovereignty and free speech by killing free speech and individual rights. We explore the paradoxes, hypocrisies, and power struggles between governments, Big Tech, and individual users — and ask the key question: What is national sovereignty without individual freedom?

Trump Media And Rumble Sue Brazilian Supreme Court Justice

In this episode, we break down the lawsuit filed by Trump Media & Technology Group and Rumble against Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S., alleges censorship and violations of free speech protections due to Moraes’ judicial orders restricting accounts and content on social media. We explore the legal and political implications of this case, how it fits into broader concerns about online speech regulation, and what it reveals about tensions between global tech platforms and national governments. Could this case set a precedent for free speech and platform governance? And what does it say about Brazil’s evolving approach to digital censorship?
