THE INDIVIDUAL CAPITALISM LIBRARY
Freedom begins with the individual.
Ideas about self-ownership, productive purpose, voluntary exchange, property, markets, responsibility, political freedom, and the life you build with them.
Capitalism starts with you.
Before there is a corporation, a stock market, or a national economy, there is an individual who thinks, chooses, works, creates, owns, trades, risks, saves, and pursues a purpose.
Individual Capitalism develops the moral and practical case for protecting that person’s freedom.

Anti-Capitalist Fallacies
Three diagnostic questions: Are we defining capitalism correctly? What caused the problem? Compared with what real alternative?
Capitalism in Practice
Move beyond principle and examine countries, institutions, historical comparisons, China, socialism, markets, and political control.
Freedom is useful only if you use it.
Get What You Want is the application side of Individual Capitalism. It turns self-direction into a practical sequence for identifying what matters, choosing a purpose, setting goals, acting on tasks, avoiding negativity traps, and pursuing achievement.
