Queens Libertarians (Founded October 6, 1994)

Join Queens Libertarians (in its speaker event for LPQC) on December 9 at noon, in a meeting on the topic "Health Care in the U.S.: Providing and Paying – Is There a Better Way?" Discussion will be held at our Woodside location at Donovan's Pub on 57-24 Roosevelt Ave, in the family room area, and will be led by LPQC Treasurer Mark Weinblatt. This discussion will follow the monthly business session, covering Queens LP housekeeping and subcommittee updates.

Weinblatt will cover the history of the issue, including: why is health insurance part of employment? Why aren’t there enough doctors? Why does the cost keep going up? Are government healthcare plans, subsidies and bureaucracies necessary? Is Health Care a Right? Do Other Countries Have a Better System? Can the Free Market Work for Health Care? And other questions.

Join Queens Libertarians (in its speaker event for LPQC) on January 13 at noon, in a meeting on the topic "Covid: The Greatest Challenge to Liberty and Reason." Discussion will be held at our Woodside location at Donovan's Pub on 57-24 Roosevelt Ave, in the family room area, and the presentation will be by Phillip Ernest Schoenberg, PhD. This discussion will follow the monthly business session, covering Queens LP housekeeping and subcommittee updates.

It's been four years since Covid, the lockdowns and the mandates. What have we learned or realized? Is our response now any more reasoned or freedom-minded than it was then, have our eyes been opened, or will we fall again into mass conformity? Schoenberg will provide historical and logical background on the controversy. As he has stated in the past: "We should not scapegoat and demonize dissenters, or enjoy schadenfreude at the sad consequences of their actions or failures to take action..."
