Famous People Who Lean Libertarian
Which actors, musicians, athletes, economists, and entrepreneurs share libertarian instincts? Some of the people here use the libertarian label outright. Others reject political labels but consistently argue for the things libertarians care about: individual freedom, free markets, civil liberties, and peace.
Politics is messier than any label. People change their minds, hold positions that don't line up neatly, and land in different places on different issues. So this isn't a purity test. Someone appears here if they've identified as libertarian in their own words, or if their public positions point consistently in a libertarian direction. Where we place them on the Nolan Chart is our estimate based on what they've said publicly, not a verdict they've signed off on.
