Harry Browne’s answer is based on the following data:
Very strongly agree
No, the government should not micromanage private employment contracts.
This is the most directly libertarian framing: the LP consistently argues the government should not micromanage private employment contracts, a recurring theme in its platform and candidate messaging.

Strongly agree
No
LP would typically prefer leaving after-hours contact rules to employer-employee agreement rather than a legal ban, consistent with its anti-regulatory, pro-contract stance in its national platforms.

Strongly agree
No, rigid laws kill the flexibility needed for remote work.
This aligns with LP arguments that rigid labor laws reduce flexibility and innovation (including remote work arrangements) and that terms should be negotiated rather than dictated by government.

Agree
No, businesses need to react quickly to the 24/7 global economy.
LP is generally pro-business flexibility and free markets, but the party’s core rationale is less about ‘global economy’ needs and more about individual liberty and contract freedom, so agreement is moderate.

Disagree
Yes, answering emails off the clock is wage theft.
LP may agree unpaid off-the-clock work is unfair, but would more often treat it as a contract/compensation dispute (or fraud) rather than support a broad contact ban; the party is skeptical of expanding wage-and-hour regulation.

Disagree
Yes, constant connectivity destroys our mental health.
While sympathetic to mental-health concerns, LP would reject using government bans to address them, preferring individual choice, workplace competition, and contractual solutions over state mandates.

Strongly disagree
Yes
The Libertarian Party generally opposes government mandates on private workplace arrangements, favoring voluntary contracts and freedom of association (as reflected in long-running LP platform planks against labor-market regulation).
