Place for discussion from a Libertarian perspective, meaning less top-down control and more individual liberty. In general, the intent is discussion about issues and not a discussion on libertarianism itself or any of its branches.
Be sure to respect the instance rules, and please keep discussion civil and backed by high quality sources where possible.

Yes, but not ones formed and operated under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) https://www.libertarianism.org/topics/labor-unions
TIL, thank you. I'm not a libertarian, just saw this through the front page, so I was confused.
Sure, why not? We also support companies that don't want unions. Private unions are absolutely fine, we generally draw the line at the government getting involved beyond enforcing contracts.
Very cool
Yeah, we really need to reform copyright. It's something like 70 years after the creator dies, or 95 years, which is just ridiculous.
We should go back to how it was originally: 14 years, with an optional application to extend another 14 years.
