Public sector unions think it’s okay to force employees who aren’t union members to pay dues that fund leftwing lobbying.

Libertarians support any voluntary associations, including unions, but oppose compelled speech and legislatively-mandated collective bargaining.

Our guest Jacob Huebert is the attorney who won the enormously important Janus vs. AFSCME Supreme Court case, this week. He’s also an Associated Scholar with the Mises Institute and author of an excellent primer titled Libertarianism Today. Jacob and Jeff Deist break down the libertarian perspective on this landmark case.

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard.

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
