Is Libertarianism more a mindset or a set of values? Libertarianism is both a mindset and a set of values, emphasizing personal morality and ethics in societal organizations. It advocates universal principles of not causing harm, respecting others’ belongings, and honesty. However, governments often operate on the principle that collective agreement can override these fundamental values. Adopting libertarianism requires a mindset shift, transitioning from established paradigms to individual and community responsibility, fostering empowerment and excitement for the opportunities it unveils. This ideology is illustrated by the “shopping cart theory,” where personal responsibility and market mechanisms work hand in hand to maintain order and address "bad actors." Unlike governments, which often employ force and coercion, libertarianism promotes peaceful, voluntary cooperation, underscoring the significance of individual rights and diverse, non-coercive solutions to societal challenges.
