Matt Kibbe talks to former Libertarian vice presidential nominee Spike Cohen about government fearmongering and the threat of vaccine passports to liberty. They also discuss how living with a chronic illness can be surprisingly motivating and what the Libertarian Party needs to do to get its house in order and start attracting voters. Cohen argues that Libertarians need to be better at addressing the practical concerns of real Americans and stop their bad habit of gatekeeping the movement.

Can humans express their views or opinions about orchestrated national social credit systems? We can always boycott what you do not like, unless it is a tax or a criminal activity to do so.
We can boycott Major League baseball or Delta Airlines or JPMorgan/Chase or Coca-Cola. and maybe CitiGroup. We could boycott National Basketball Assoc. or products from Communist governments.
For years, I have urged the LP to address the real issues of real voters. Back during the 1980’s, I urged LP to address the issue of high health care costs and the health care monopoly. I was told no one had an interest. The LP at that time was a “club” of mostly men discussing ideal forms of government, a start, but not dealing with the reality we, and the rest of humanity, live in.
The message has to be pushing back on government mandates and convincing people that government is the problem, that people left to their own devices, can solve problems, offer numerous choices.
