Historically, Americans have seen libertarians as far outside the mainstream, but with the rise of the Tea Party movement, libertarian principles have risen to the forefront of Republican politics. But libertarianism is more than the philosophy of individual freedom and unfettered markets that Republicans have embraced. Indeed, as Jason Brennan points out, libertarianism is a quite different--and far richer--system of thought than most of us suspect.

In this timely new entry in Oxford's acclaimed series What Everyone Needs to Know�, Brennan offers a nuanced portrait of libertarianism, proceeding through a series of questions to illuminate the essential elements of libertarianism and the problems the philosophy addresses, including such topics as the Value of Liberty, Human Nature and Ethics, Economic Liberty, Civil Rights, Social Justice and the Poor, Government and Democracy, and Contemporary Politics. Brennan asks the most fundamental and challenging questions: What do Libertarians think liberty is? Do libertarians think everyone should be selfish? Are libertarians just out to protect the interests of big business? What do libertarians think we should do about racial injustice? What would libertarians do about pollution? Are Tea Party activists true libertarians? As he sheds light on libertarian beliefs, Brennan overturns numerous misconceptions. Libertarianism is not about simple-minded paranoia about government, he writes. Rather, it celebrates the ideal of peaceful cooperation among free and equal people. Libertarians believe that the rich always capture political power; they want to minimize the power available to them in order to protect the weak. Brennan argues that libertarians are, in fact, animated by benevolence and a deep concern for the poor.

Clear, concise, and incisively written, this volume explains a vitally important philosophy in American history--and a potent force in contemporary politics.

Solid Budget Monitor Arm With a Few Trade‑Offs
Size: 13"-34", Style: Single Arm
The WALI Single Monitor Mount performs about the same as my VIVO single monitor arm, which was a pleasant surprise given the lower price point. Setup was straightforward, and the gas spring adjustment works well once dialed in. It holds my monitor securely and offers the full range of motion I expected—tilt, swivel, rotation, and height adjustments all function smoothly. That said, the materials and overall build quality do feel a bit cheaper compared to higher‑end arms. It’s not flimsy, but you can tell where costs were saved. If you’re willing to spend roughly 60–70% more, you can definitely get a noticeably sturdier and more refined arm. Still, for a budget option, this one delivers exactly what it promises. Pros - Works just as well as the VIVO arm in terms of functionality - Easy to install with both clamp and grommet options - Gas spring provides good adjustability once set - Excellent value for an entry‑level monitor arm Cons - Materials feel cheaper than premium alternatives - Build quality isn’t as high as more expensive arms Overall As an introductory monitor arm, this is an excellent choice. It does everything the VIVO arm can, just with slightly lower‑end materials. If you’re on a budget or setting up a simple workstation, it’s a great fit. If you want something more robust for long‑term heavy use, spending a bit more will get you a significantly more refined Monitor arm.

Sturdy and easy to assemble
Size: 13"-34", Style: Single Arm, Size: 13"-34", Style: Single Arm
Really impressed with this monitor mount. The build quality feels solid and sturdy, especially for the price. It holds the monitor securely with no sagging or wobble, and the adjustability makes it super easy to get the perfect position. It’s been absolutely perfect for my sim racing setup being able to move the screen exactly where I want it made a huge difference in comfort and immersion. Definitely feels like a premium product without the premium price tag.

Reliable, affordable, and user-friendly
Size: 13"-34", Style: Single Arm, Size: 13"-34", Style: Single Arm
The installation process was straightforward and didn’t take much time at all—even if you’re not particularly handy, it’s easy to figure out. What really stands out is how flexible the arm is. It adjusts smoothly in multiple directions, making it simple to position my monitor exactly where I want it. Whether I’m working, watching something, or multitasking, the range of motion makes a noticeable difference in comfort and productivity. It’s also very sturdy once set up. My monitor feels secure, and I haven’t experienced any sagging or instability. As a second screen mount, it integrates perfectly with my desk setup and helps keep everything organized and clutter-free.

Solid Build, Easy Setup
Size: 17"-49", Style: Single Arm
I picked up two of these mounts — one for my 34" curved LG ultrawide and one for my 30" MSI ultrawide — and both have performed exactly as advertised. Build Quality & Value For the price, this thing is built surprisingly well. It feels solid, looks clean on the desk, and doesn't have that cheap, flimsy feel you'd expect at this price point. Genuinely impressed. Assembly & Installation Setup was straightforward. Everything you need comes in the box. The only tool you'll need to grab yourself is a ½" wrench — have that ready before you start and you'll be done in minutes. Mounting Options Two ways to mount it: clamp-on or through-hole (use an existing grommet hole or drill a new one). Both options feel secure once locked down. Sturdiness & Adjustability Once mounted, the arm holds firm. No drooping, no wobble. Repositioning the monitor is smooth and easy — tilt, swivel, height adjustments all work well even with the larger ultrawide panels. One Thing to Watch The tiny limiting screws ship loosely packed inside the arms. They're small and easy to lose if you're not paying attention when you open the box. Dump the contents carefully over a flat surface before digging in. Bottom Line If you're on the fence about a monitor mount, stop overthinking it and grab this one. It handles large ultrawides without breaking a sweat, installs fast, and won't break the bank. Highly recommended.

Initial thoughts
Size: 13"-34", Style: Single Arm
Getting everything set up took a bit of time and patience. The adjustment system wasn’t the most intuitive at first, and I ran into some confusion while trying to dial in the right positioning. However, after working with it for a while, I was able to get it pretty close to exactly how I wanted it. One thing to note is that making very fine adjustments can be a bit tricky. The mount is also slightly wobbly, and it’s fairly easy to bump the monitor out of position if you’re not careful. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s something to be aware of if you prefer a perfectly stable setup. That said, the overall construction feels solid and well-made, and once it’s in place, it does its job effectively. For the price and functionality, it’s a reliable option that gets the job done—even if it takes a little effort to get there.
