> Corporations in the USA are not free to do business with whomever they choose.
But wouldn't a libertarian (or at least some of them) be opposed to those restrictions on the individual liberty of corporations?
- claytongulick 6y agoI think the general feeling of a libertarian would be more along the lines of being opposed to government restrictions on individual liberty. I think the idea of raising awareness and affecting corporate decisions by applying market forces is directly in-line with most libertarian thinking.
- kazinator 6y agoRight, and so if the libertarian suspected that a corporation is acting in some way due to some state coercion, the libertarian would complain without implying that the libertarian doesn't believe in the free market.
