As the November elections approach, the one issue Americans continue to care about more than any other is affordability. Instead of taking these concerns seriously, Republicans are taking potshots at young people for buying $20 burritos. The Democratic Socialists, on the other hand, are at least pretending to care about the cost of living, setting themselves up for big electoral victories next month. Matt Kibbe is joined by Young Voices commentator Maggie Anders to explain why socialist promises to bring prices down and wages up are not to be believed and why the policies of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) and his friends will only make life harder for working Americans.

Ep 408 | The Radical Life of Thomas Sowell | Guest: Clifton Duncan

Kibbe on Liberty is a weekly podcast with libertarian author and economist, Matt Kibbe. Kibbe believes that honest conversations, driven by intellectual curiosity and mutual respect, can ignite a new revolution of free thinking and a willingness to question the official narrative. That means talking, and listening, to a wide variety of people outside the echo chamber of officially sanctioned experts.&nbsp;
Kibbe on Liberty's guests include politicians, economists, musicians, comedians, writers, radio personalities, activists, journalists, and even magicians—with topics of conversation ranging from current affairs to obscure philosophy, from craft beer to the Grateful Dead. Cold one in hand, settle in for the next brain-stimulating hour of Kibbe on Liberty.
As the president of Free the People, Kibbe has decades of experience in the libertarian political sphere. He is the author of three books, including Don’t Hurt People and Don’t Take Their Stuff, a #2 NY Times Best Seller. Kibbe is a fanatical DeadHead, drinker of great whisky, and collector of obscure books on Austrian economics.
