<br />
==History==<br />
{{Libertarianism sidebar}}<br />
''The Libertarian Forum'' was created in 1969 after the demise of ''[[Left and Right: A Journal of Libertarian Thought]]'', for support [[anarcho-capitalism]]. The focus of the journal was on "substantive theoretical contributions, commentaries on politics, details of disputes and arguments within the libertarian movement, and forecasts on the future of liberty."<ref>[http://www.mises.org/journals/libertarianforum.asp ''The Libertarian Forum'' archive], provided in its entirety by [http://www.mises.org The Ludwig von Mises Institute].</ref> The original publisher was [[Joseph R. Peden]].<br />
<br />
''The Libertarian Forum'' published several early incarnations of essays that would later be included as chapters in [[Walter Block]]'s ''Defending the Undefendable''.<br />
<br />
==Name change==<br />
Originally titled ''The Libertarian'', it was renamed ''The Libertarian Forum'' with the sixth issue.<br />
<br />
According to the journal,<blockquote>After we had launched ''The Libertarian'', we discovered that a monthly mimeographed periodical with the same name emanating from New Jersey had been publishing for several years. To avoid confusion with this publication, we are hereby changing our name to ''The Libertarian Forum''; no change is involved in policy or format.</blockquote><br />

<div>The '''Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation''' ('''FSLIC''') was an institution that insured and regulated [[Savings and loan association|savings and loan institutions]] in the [[United States]].{{Fact|Pretty much undisputed, still not really quoted from anywhere, source would be nice.}}<br />
<br />
FSLIC was created by the 1934 [[National Housing Act of 1934|National Housing Act]], which also and provided for the chartering of national mortgage associations as entities within the federal government. (The only association formed was the [[National Mortgage Association of Washington]], which eventually became [[Fannie Mae]].)<br />
<br />
In 1967 the [[Savings and Loan Holding Company Act Amendments]] provided for the regulation of [[savings and loan]] holding companies by the FSLIC. The [[S&L crisis]] of the 1980s led to the establishment of a new federal regulatory agency for thrifts: in 1989, the [[Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act]] (FIRREA) abolished FSLIC and the [[FHLBB]] and created, in their place, the [[Office of Thrift Supervision]] (OTS) to regulate and supervise thrifts. The insurance function for savings associations was transferred to the FDIC.<ref name="Kushmeider_Regulatory">Rose Marie Kushmeider.

==Savings and Loan crisis==<br />
The Savings & Loan crisis was the greatest collapse of U.S. financial institutions since the 1930s. From 1986 to 1989, FSLIC, the insurer of the thrift industry, closed or otherwise resolved 296 institutions with total assets of $125 billion. An even more traumatic period followed, with the creation of the [[Resolution Trust Corporation]] (RTC) in 1989 and that agency’s resolution by mid-1995 of an additional 747 thrifts with total assets of $394 billion.<ref name="Curry_Cost">Timothy Curry and Lynn Shibut.
