Drooling Over the FreedomFest
Via Samizdata, I learn of FreedomFest. Lesse here:
- It's in Las Vegas.
- Harry Browne, Jason Sorens, John Stossel, Ron Paul, David Friedman, Nathaniel Branden, Steve Moore, Grover Norquist, Ronald Bailey, Tibor Machan, Ben Stein, David Boaz, and numerous others will be speaking. Such as Dr. Arthur B. Laffer, creater of the famous Laffer Curve.
- Three days of events.
- Panels and debates with topics like Two Visions of Liberty: Anarchy vs Limited Government and The Civil War: Did the Right Side Win?
- And a large array of sponsors and exhibitors.
Of course, there is a $250 registration fee and other expenses...but damn. That's a lot of free market brainpower in one place at once.

The Fest has come and gone, but there are two post-Fest articles to read:
The first, from WorldNetDaily, is far better than the second, from National Review.
