Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"Donald Trump is the consummate Zionist stooge. He has bewitched Christians and conservatives with his phony religious rhetoric and overt pandering to Israel. Of course, Christians were already poised and ready for a deceiver like Trump to come along. Ever since the end of World War II, America’s evangelical churches have dispensed the devilish and diabolical doctrines of dispensational futurism, which turned them into willing vassals of all things Israel."

Chuck Baldwin

"I’ve yet to meet one person who could justify the '12 years left to live' narrative… but still took it to heart.

It’s not controversial to disagree with it.

It’s just highly politically incorrect. And incredibly emotionally charged.

For that reason…

Anyone who doesn’t see the 'green movement' has all but morphed into a global apocalyptic climate church is... probably, at this point, embedded in the church.

Propaganda machines have always used innocence over reason as a powerful way to push their narrative.

It works well because…

A] It tugs on the heart strings

B] And, to dispute or dissent against a child’s emotional pleas would make one seem petty, insolent, and/or a cold-hearted brute."

Chris Campbell

"Unlimited mass immigration will favor more mass democracy in America. More democracy is inimical to the implementation of libertarian principles. It involves more voting on more issues, and the result is more initiation of violence through politics.

In addition, a broadened and intensified democracy creates so much disorder and violence that it often ends up with a demand for order from a strong man dictator. Authoritarian governments result."

Michael Rozeff

"Most people either don’t vote or do so out of habit or inertia and with little enthusiasm because they realize that the marginal benefit of doing so is so close to zero that only a mathematician could tell the difference.  The media love to tout the occasional close race decided by a few votes, however, these are rare and it is rarer still when a different result would have resulted in any real impact on the voter’s life.  From the standpoint of pure logic, voting is not rational for the individual."

James Ostrowski

"The word 'socialism' today is actually just shorthand for a welfare state, which is what Boobus americanus, the hoi polloi, really want. They don’t really care who owns the factories, the fields, and the mines. What they care about is that somebody gives them a soft life.

When you give people the ability to vote themselves free stuff at somebody else’s expense they’ll do it. But – much worse – they now actually think it’s the right thing to do. Why? Mainly because of the propaganda that they’ve absorbed through college, and the media, the entertainment world, and numerous other places. There’s no question about the fact that the U.S. will turn into a full-fledged welfare state."

Doug Casey

"A group is deadly. A mob is stupid. A collective has no morality. If we are to stand against evil, and stand effectively, then it can only be as individuals – and individuals who recognize that other human beings are also individuals, regardless of any groups or nations they may belong to. The state, at its core, is the antithesis of civilization. If we are to fight it, the best place to start is by reclaiming civilization, and civility."

Bretigne Shaffer

"One can love his country but hate his government and its actions. I love America but not the people who control America and its government. I love America, but its rulers are alien to individual freedom, its government is now anathema to liberty."

Bob Livingston

"Another reason people can find themselves eager to believe smears about [Julian] Assange is that the raw facts revealed by WikiLeaks publications punch giant holes in the stories about the kind of world, nation and society that most people have been taught to believe they live in since school age. These kinds of beliefs are interwoven with people’s entire egoic structures, with their sense of self and who they are as a person, so narratives which threaten to tear them apart can feel the same as a personal attack. This is why you’ll hear ordinary citizens talking about Assange as though he attacked them personally; all he did was publish facts about the powerful, but since those facts conflict with tightly held identity constructs, the cognitive dissonance that was caused to them can be interpreted as feeling like he’d slapped them in the face."

Caitlin Johnstone

"The U.S. does not lose wars because the real objective is never to win. The so-called War on Terror solidified this reality once and for all, even though this continuous war policy has been in effect since at least Vietnam, if not earlier. After the end of WWI, another war was needed to satisfy the hunger of the elites, but until the War on Terror, an end to each individual conflict was always imminent. Now there is no end in sight.

So why would the U.S. government and its puppet masters ever want to win a war, given that losing is actually winning in this multi-trillion dollar business? War is the health of the state, and so long as the proletariat continues to support war and those who prosecute war, war will never end, and freedom will never survive."

Gary D. Barnett

"We see a fundamental awareness among average people in the country that the major cities of the empire are not their friend.  After twenty years of public harping, people finally realize that trillions upon trillions of US government debt is both dumb and dangerous.  We know this because government supported economists have put forth a new theory to calm everyone down!   The US birth rate is down, veterans and their families are angry, the Fed is hated by all, and even the president’s tweets are no longer important to us.

All signs point to the end in our lifetimes of the DC empire, an end worth celebrating on this day, and every day."

Karen Kwiatkowski

"Governments are nothing more than sophisticated brigand bands with bad music, colored rags flapping in the breeze and large bands of armed thugs with a license to kill.

We all pay at the peril of our children and grandchildren as we feed the beast that makes life more and more centralized, regulated and less than optimal."

Bill Buppert

"It was a mistake for my generation to associate Orwell’s Memory Hole and falsified history only with fictional or real dystopias.  Falsified history was all around us.  We just didn’t know enough to spot it.  What living and learning has taught me is that history tends to always be falsified, and historians who insist on the truth suffer for it.  It has been established that many of the ancient historians are unreliable, because they were 'court historians' who sought material benefit by writing to please a ruler.  In my time many an historian has written for income from book sales by enthralling the public with tales of glorious victories over demonized enemies that justified all the sons, grandsons, brothers, fathers, uncles, husbands, friends, and cousins who were sacrificed for the sake of capitalist armaments profits.  No publisher wanted a truthful account that no one would buy because of the stark portrayal of the pointlessness of the deaths of loved ones. Everyone, or almost so, wants to think that their loss was for a noble cause and was 'worth it'."

Paul Craig Roberts

US Crimes of the Week

Truthful headlines (and just one week’s worth) offering you more reasons to separate yourselves from The Regime’s madness:

Border Invasion by Criminals Will Continue

No disease screenings are done of the invaders, yet The Regime has the resources to offer special accommodations for the comfort of mentally ill circus freaks.

Some of the “poor” and downtrodden still find reason to complain, buoyed by typical, ridiculous, over emotional comparisons by Regime Maoists.

The Regime claims they will enforce welfare restrictions that were ignored in the past and the Emperor blows more smoke regarding deportations.

A record number of Africans are now invading and Texans are pissed.

Regime-created drug dealers are now getting in on the asylum scam.

Here’s one reasonable solution offered.

Emperor Signs One-Sided ‘Defense’ Treaty with Poland

American lives and wealth go to defending Poland from The Evil Russkies but the Poles don’t reciprocate.

You think the Poles would be willing to send some troops to the Texas/Mexico border? Could they at least help us shoot down the drones?

Regime Gangsters Talk More About Looting and Slandering White People

Just doing what they can to start a race war.

Regime Spends Record Amount of Your Stolen Money

Over $3Trillion in just eight months on lots of goodies.

Regime Gangsters Agree to Sell Weapons to Middle East Tyrants

And “we” (meaning the War Whores) must sell them these weapons or they will buy them from The Evil Russkies or the Chicoms! 

As a result, you are forced to help pay for both these overt terrorists and their covert beneficiaries.

Regime Uses Bigfoot Quality Video to ‘Prove’ Iran Attacked Oil Tankers

A couple blurry ships, a few blurry people and an even blurrier “limpet mine” is all they got.

The crew has another idea of what happened.

Considering that the DC Regime has already committed to economic war against Iran in the service of Israel and Saudi Arabia, doesn’t it make sense that they are behind this?

Next, they point us to a blurry still photo offering still no evidence of a limpet mine, only the usual anti-Iran speculation.

And if they were removing a limpit mine, isn’t that a good thing? It seems, far more damning evidence would show Iranians installing such mines, which would have to be done by boat or a diver with very long arms.

Let’s not forget the anti-Iran false flags offered by DC’s Prince of Darkness years ago.

Meanwhile, a thousand more killers are on the way to stir up more trouble and the ultimate attack we feared is being planned.

Regime Prick Waves the World

Of course, none of these assets are directed toward protecting the Texas border.

Regime’s $400 Billion Fighter Jet is a Piece of Junk

And don’t overlook the underlying hypocrisy in its creation.

Regime Gangster Pushing to Attack Cuba and Venezuela

This will (supposedly) encourage obedience to The Empire by Iran and North Korea. It’s irrelevant how many Cubans and Venezuelans die.

Got it?

Regime Goon Believes He Can Legally Start a War with Iran on His Own

And you can be sure, he’ll get away with it. That “constitution” loyalists worship has been deceased since at least 1865.

Regime Gangster Wants to Outlaw Personal Destruction of Regime’s Lame Symbol

Say “Bye, bye” to property rights and “hello” to forced worship of an ugly piece of cloth.

DC fascism is the “new freedom.”

Communist Regime Gangster/Emperor Wannabe Presents Gun Confiscation Plan

Either you sell or give your scary looking, self-defense weapons to Regime goons or he puts you in a cage.

Regime’s ‘Justice’ Operatives Fail to Prosecute Their Homegrown Criminals

Those who commit crimes for the benefit of The Regime are let off will little or no punishment.

However, those who commit made up “crimes” against The Regime are prosecuted and persecuted. Truth is The Regime’s number one enemy.

Emperor Claims World Will End if He Doesn’t Keep His Crown

In reality, of course, he’s doing just fine getting us there with his trade wars, shooting wars, and threats of shooting wars.

Regime Accuses Russia of Nuke Violation with No Evidence

They supposedly have violated a treaty that The DC Regime never ratified themselves!

Regime’s Pentagram to Send $250Million in Killing Aid to Neo-Nazis

It’s just one piece of the plan to start WWIII. And you are forced to pay for it.

Regime Prick Waves Russia

I’m sure they were just flying that nuclear bomber near the Russian border just to say, “hello.”

Why remain a suffering subject? Why do you need a “US?”

Secession, anyone?

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"Don’t socialists love to chant 'seize the means of production' and 'redistribute the wealth' without ever comprehending that they can’t seize or redistribute anything if nobody creates anything to seize and redistribute? Note from libertarians: Those who create things and produce wealth are capitalists! Those who seize and forcibly redistribute are socialists!"

Garry Reed

"The difference in lifestyle between you and someone in Zimbabwe seems as great to Zimbabweans as the difference between the 1% and you seems to you.

By what consistent moral principle are the American 1% to be expropriated, but you are not?

If you earn even $32,400, then you belong to the global 1%.

Why should only the 1% within an arbitrary set of borders be targeted for demonization and redistribution, but not 1% of the whole world?

In other words, when can we expect you to write your check?"

Tom Woods

"Socialism in the U.S. is unlikely. Governments have found it’s much more efficient to simply have the State control capital, as opposed to owning and operating it. It’s so much easier to just take as much as they want of the profits, then blame the capitalists if something goes wrong with delivery of the goods."

Doug Casey

"Discrimination has become a four-letter word.

To have any preference at all, it seems, is to be a bigot.

Noise music, we’re told to believe, is just as good as Mozart.

It’s just a different expression of art.

B.S.

According to Gautama Buddha, the greatest essential human virtue is discrimination.

It is necessary, he said, to progress and to the advancement of civilization.

And, no, not superficial discrimination... judging people by things they can’t control… which the vast majority of people agree is wrong.

I’m talking about discriminating between things that are generative and life-affirming…

And things that suck us into despair, chaos, and suck out our energy.

It’s in our nature.

The body responds to beauty. It opens up. It becomes energized.

And it cringes in the face of senseless chaos. It closes down.  It sinks into despair.

If you don’t allow yourself to discriminate, you stop listening to your body… your soul…

Your being."

Chris Campbell

"All government is based solely on hitting and stealing and rationalizing all forms of anti-social behavior and legalizing piracy and plunder and calling it an enterprise for your own good. I always find it hypocritical when the communist can view taxes as just while at the same time ranting about keeping the full product on one’s labor. Go figure."

Bill Buppert

"In my view, the illusion that there is a choice in voting is more dangerous than living in a society where you are told you have no right to vote. At least in the latter situation you are not participating in your own enslavement.

The illusion of choice is a powerful weapon for the elitist class; it gives the populace false hope and a false sense that they have a say in their own futures. This is why it is likely that even in the event that the elites gain the complete totalitarian centralization they ultimately want, they will still allow voting to continue in one form or another, as long as they are certain they can control the outcome."

Brandon Smith

"According to Identity Politics, white people are in charge, but the evidence is to the contrary. There are no quotas for whites in university admissions, hiring, and promotion. It is the allegedly victimized 'preferred minorities' who get to go to the front of the line. There are no hate speech or hate crime protections for whites. Whites can be called every hurtful and offensive name in the book and have no right or power to demand apologies or the firing of the offender. White DNA has been declared to be 'an abomination,' and white people 'shouldn’t exist.' In America today, the way to get ahead is to claim victim-hood. Jews are experts at this, and blacks, women, and illegal immigrants have learned the same trick."

Paul Craig Roberts

"Many Americans admire America for being strong, not for being American. For them America has to be 'the greatest country on Earth' in order to be worthy of their devotion. If it were only the second greatest, or the 19th greatest, or, heaven forbid, “a third-rate power,” it would be virtually worthless… Maybe the poor Finns or Peruvians love their countries too, but heaven knows why — they have so little to be proud of, so few 'reasons'."

Joe Sobran

"When George Washington said 'government is force,' he meant that government is force against its own people.

Since by definition government is force, then it follows that government will use any ruse imaginable to increase its power. Increased use of government force or power could backfire unless skillfully handled and justified in the public mind. Therefore, governments rarely take action unless accompanied by skillful propaganda."

Bob Livingston

"Whether Western Civilization can be considered extinct, in a terminal state, or simply on a downhill course, is subject to differing interpretations. Suffice it to say that our culture is beset by rigor mortis, including its organizational systems; its creative vibrancy is gone; it no longer produces the values necessary for its survival; nor does it continue to meet the expectations of those who have embraced its qualities or purposes in benefitting human beings. Clarity in thought or vision that drives men and women to discover or create ways in which human well-being can be advanced, is being sacrificed to political or ideological ends. The Animal Farm mantra 'four legs good, two legs bad,' has been transformed into divisive slogans such as 'black lives matter,' and an insistence upon a multitude of subdivided gender identities."

Butler Shaffer

"Only with democracy, however, i.e., the free and unrestricted entry into the State, are all moral restraints and inhibitions against the taking of others’ lawful property removed. Everyone is free to indulge in such temptations and propose and promote every conceivable measure of legislation and taxation to gain advantages at other people’s expense. That is, whereas in a natural order everyone is expected to spend his time exclusively on production or consumption, under democratic conditions, increasingly more time is spent instead on politics, i.e., on the advocacy and promotion of activities that are neither productive nor consumptive, but exploitative and parasitic of and on the property of others."

Hans-Hermann Hoppe

"The fact is that there is no difference in principle between religious liberty and educational liberty. Just as people shouldn’t be forced to send their children to church, they shouldn’t be forced to send their children to a state-approved organization for secular education and training. Families have the natural, God-given right to make educational decisions for their children without state interference or meddling, just as they do with respect to religious decisions.

No one should be forced to attend church. By the same token, no one should be force to submit to a state-approved education. For that matter, no one should be forced to fund a state-approved school any more than he should be forced to fund a state-approved church. The state has no more business in education than it does in religion."

Jacob Hornberger

US Crimes of the Week

Truthful headlines (and just one week’s worth) offering you more reasons to separate yourselves from The Regime’s madness:

Border Invasion Continues Unabated

Welcomed with free diapers, these criminals use fraud instead of firearms as their weapon of choice.

They enter with ease (some with armed escorts) and given free, unhampered travel.

Thousands enter each month to create thousands more anchor babies.

Many have evil intentions while others spread disease (with more on the way).

There are easily 100 million people who would qualify for “asylum.” Are you prepared to take them all?

Regime controlled media elites (and ex-Regime Goons) declare such an invasion as appropriate and necessary while using absurd comparisons.

DC criminals see walls and protective barriers as useful for themselves while a foreign group of tyrants orders a private wall to leave its gate open!

The Emperor gets more defenders at the Mexico-Guatemala border but not the Mexico-Texas border:

Regime’s Paranoia About Iran Increases

Watch this lunacy become more and more laughable in the weeks ahead.

The Regime is now officially attacking any dissent to this constant war propaganda.

Emperor’s Tariffs Wipe Out Subjects Tax ‘Savings’

They’ll always find a way to steal from you, because they truly believe your money belongs to them first!

Regime Increases Number of DC Parasites by 4000 in Just One Month

Brain Dead Regime Gangster Attempts Extortion Against Subjects

Either give her and her fellow gangsters more money or they’ll become more corrupt than they already are!

Our coast will be defenseless while they stir up more terrorist acts against China.

Regime Sending More Troops to Poland

Polish tax slaves get a freebie at the expense of DC tax slaves.

Emperor Threatens Economic War Against China

DC is the world’s most perfect bully.

Regime’s Mad Scientists Want to Read Minds

Not only your money and property belong first to The Regime, but your thoughts, as well.

Only their version of terrorism should be allowed promotion.

Emperor Wants You to Eat More Franken-Food

He wants to make it as easy as possible for The Regime and Big Agra to stuff more GMO garbage down your throat.

Regime Communists Working to Criminalize Gun Manufacturing

They’ve begun the first step toward such a reality- They want to hold the manufacturers liable for customer misuse of their legal product.

There are no limits to the idiocy of desperate hoplophobes.

Secession, anyone?

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"When talking about past, present, or future wars, it is imperative to understand that being 'unwinnable' or 'winnable' is never a valid reason to justify going to war. To say that the country should not be in a war because it is unwinnable is to imply that if it were winnable, war would be warranted. How difficult is it to see the insanity of this thinking?"

Gary D. Barnett

"Socialism, democratic or otherwise, rides on the back of government force and violence. You can wrap it up in platitudes about a just and charitable society. You can sell it with promises of healthcare for all and social justice. You can promote it through pretty politicians like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or grandfatherly figures like Bernie Sanders. But when they step aside and drop the veil, you will find a government agent pointing a gun at your head demanding obedience."

Mike Maharry

"The whole idea of hate crimes came out of the left, not out of the right. All of the mass murderers of recent history – Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot – were collectivists. Some will say Hitler was 'right wing,' which is ridiculous. He was a national socialist, with all the left’s views, adding a hatred for Jews, and a passion for nationalism.

That said, I don’t have particularly high regard for most of my fellow men once they form groups. Watch a political rally – something collectivists love – and it’s easy to see humans as just highly evolved chimpanzees. But I do like individual people. Leftists on the other hand say they love humanity in general, but they hate most people one-on-one."

Doug Casey

"The self-sufficiency, the civic independence, of the citizens of a republic, the idea that the citizens should support themselves economically, should be able to defend themselves,educate themselves, and discipline themselves, is closely connected to the idea of public virtue…A self governing people is simply too busy, as a rule, with the concerns of self-government to take much interest in other peoples’ business…A self-governing people generally abhors secrecy in government and rightly distrusts it. The only way, then, in which those intent upon…the expansion of their power over other peoples, can succeed is by diminishing the degree of self-government in their own society. They must persuade the self-governing people that there is too much self-government going around, that the people themselves simply are not smart enough or well-informed enough to deserve much say in such complicated matters as foreign policy…We hear it…every time an American President intones that 'politics stop at the water’s edge.' Of course, politics do not stop at the water’s edge unless we as a people are willing to surrender a vast amount of control over what the government does in military, foreign, economic, and intelligence affairs."

Samuel Francis

"In effect, education has become a brainwashing operation that is focused on discrediting 'whiteness creations' such as Western civilization and science. White heterosexual males are becoming objects of hatred. They are routinely discriminated against in university admissions and employment, in corporate employment and promotions, even in the military where, according to reports, promotions of white males are more or less on hold while race and gender balance is obtained.

Defense of 'whiteness' is impermissible. It is proof that one is a 'white supremicist.' Illogical double standards are everywhere obvious. Only whites can be guilty of 'hate speech' and 'hate crimes.' Yet white people can be called every name in the book and accused of all evil in the world. White DNA has been declared to be 'abominable.' As a student newspaper in Texas put it, the world will be liberated when white people die off. Indeed, white people 'shouldn’t exist'."

Paul Craig Roberts

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles"

Jeff Cooper

"The whole world knows about the U.S. military industrial complex war machine and its pursuit of profits. But Americans tend to turn a blind eye. They still buy the propaganda that foreign wars are defending American 'freedoms.' The opposite is true.

Wars are not for our freedom or patriotism or democracy, as we are propagandized. Wars are to kill and to benefit big business — which reaps massive profits from the killing and sacrifice of young men (lambs) on all sides of combat — and for the banksters. And the U.S. is only a republic in name. We have some of the symbols — an electoral college, an elected House — but the Senate is now a national one controlled by moneyed interests and the Supreme Court is an all-powerful oligarchy that creates laws from thin air and strikes down those passed lawfully by the states and their people, which renders states powerless under an ever-expanding national government. And Congress is a feckless body that has ceded its authority to a dictatorial presidency and the alphabet soup federal agencies.

There is nothing republican about it. It's fascism and benevolent totalitarianism."

Bob Livingston

"What if I privately took the property of one American to give to another American to help him out? I’m guessing and hoping you’d call it theft and seek to jail me. When Congress does the same thing, it’s still theft. The only difference is that it’s legalized theft. However, legality alone does not establish morality. Slavery was legal; was it moral? Nazi, Stalinist and Maoist purges were legal, but were they moral?"

Walter Williams

"Democratic socialism is Marxism, and as Marxism it condemns private property. It condemns private ownership of capital, or the means of production, which is everything that goes into producing the goods that keep us alive, sheltered, clothed, healthy, fed, entertained, and other such values. In Marxism, everyone is called upon to work to the extent they can for a common good or a common pool of goods. One doesn’t work directly for oneself. One doesn’t try to progress, because it gets you nowhere. The more you try to build up your wealth, the more that it’s taken away from you.

Marxism promotes freeloading and shirking. Everyone has an incentive to let others do the work and to draw goods from the common pool. This never works to promote the production of goods. Starvation is the result. Marxism of any type always fails because its incentives are totally perverse."

Michael Rozeff

"Just for the sake of argument, we accepted critics' insistence that the rights of property are not absolute and must sometimes be curtailed, it would not follow that it is the state rather than the individual conscience that must do the curtailing.

State power to aggress against property owners inevitably encourages man's most predatory instincts, giving him an incentive to devote less time to satisfying the needs of his fellow men and more time to using the state's machinery of coercion to loot them for his own selfish benefit. To put this in language more familiar to our critics, the release of such instincts undermines the common good."

Tom Woods

US Crimes of the Week

Truthful headlines (and just one week’s worth) offering you more reasons to separate yourselves from The Regime’s madness:

No border protection is offered by The Orange Lord- only taxing and further punishing The Regime’s vassals.

Quotes of the Week

Enlightened insights taken from the past week’s reading:

"We have been watching the slow-motion assassination of Julian Assange. They have been choking him to death by tactical psyops, siege tactics, and wilful neglect as surely as if they placed a noose tied around his neck, not just in Belmarsh Prison but in the embassy as well. The only difference between his execution and someone on death row is the same as the difference between covert and overt warfare, which makes sense because the intelligence, judicial and military agencies who are carrying out his death sentence operate within the same power structure which carries out war. First came the smears (propaganda), then came the siege (sanctions), and they staged their coup (dragged him out of the embassy) and now they've got him in their clutches and they can do what they want behind closed doors. That's how you kill a nation while still looking like a nice guy, and that's how they're killing Assange."

Caitlin Johnstone

"Although Julian Assange is the one being harmed, the issue at hand is much larger than any single individual. Without free and open reporting, without the exposure of illegal and heinous acts of government, without constant scrutiny of the political class, all of us will eventually suffer adverse consequences. While governments rely on force in order to control individual dissent, it relies on fear to control the masses. The government’s abuse, torture, and even murder of Assange will send a message to all others willing to expose evil deeds to stand down or face harsh or deadly consequences. This single case will go a long way toward eliminating criticism of the ruling class, as more and more journalists will tow the line of the state instead of opposing it. This is the objective sought by government."

Gary D. Barnett

"The trade war issue appears to cause confusion among the new collectivist breed of libertarians regarding the non-aggression principle. This core principle is what underlies the free trade issue: it is fundamentally a question of voluntary market exchange. Trade is a matter of the parties involved in each exchange, not a conflict between the parties or their 'teams'. In fact, the state is antithetical to this freedom, whether or not it is exercised alone or in voluntary association. Thus, a libertarian cannot see the state as a mechanism for good, or as a means to an end, no matter how legitimate the end."

Per Bylund

"Tax cuts that are not paired with spending cuts are deferred tax increases. Unless the people and the politicians kick the welfare-warfare habit they will soon face increases in inflation and other taxes. The key to avoiding this is to restore a proper understanding of sound economics and the philosophy of liberty among the people. Politicians will only cut spending when the people stop demanding security and start demanding liberty."

Ron Paul

"Gun owners are the new Negro. Private weapons ownership and communism do not mix.

No such thing as socialism. That’s just a polite way of saying fuck you. It is all just communism with a smiley face. The socialist hides the gun and the communist brandishes it."

Bill Buppert

"The agorists have it right: there are two spheres, politics and the market, and they have nothing to do with each other. Their principles are 100 percent opposed to each other."

Tom Woods

"America was founded on separation; the Declaration of Independence explains why it's a basic human right. It was a separation of states and individuals from the British Crown; it had nothing to do with race. (I mention this because people love to conflate people who want to be left alone or to separate from a corrupt government with white supremacists. This is because of the phony history taught about the reason for secession of the several southern states prior to the War of Northern Aggression.)"

Bob Livingston

"Given the changing demographics and unwieldy tasks the United States government is undertaking, the country needs to take a timeout and actually consider separation. Even if it’s based on a simplistic red vs. blue divide, it’s still a conversation starter for future separatist movements. The depoliticization of society starts with decentralization."

Jose Nino

"In addition to the growing censorship, I have noticed among younger generations the disappearance of the very concept of objective truth. They see truth as the mere expression of some identity interest. There are racial truths, gender truths, sexual preference truths, and apparently also age truths. The younger ages, or many of them, cannot tell the difference between an explanation and a justification. If you explain something to them, they think you are defending it, or endorsing it, and that it is your belief. In other words, communication on the basis of facts and logical explanation becomes impossible. 

I think much of the Western world has sunk into this mindframe, which might also be the case in the rest of the world."

Paul Craig Roberts

"How does a hopelessly divided bunch of apparatchiks confined to the DC empirical beltway, deal with, let alone solve the problems of 300 plus millions with diverse cultural, economic and social needs? What do we get?

Internecine swamp creatures engaged in civil war. The guy who was to 'drain' it finds himself feeding it. A fools errand. The 'swamp' has been nurtured by a decades old, systematic, defenestration of the Constitution. Words, phrases no longer with meaning. Defined by the highest bidder, conflated to the political interest de jour. Likely beyond repair.

Sensible folks would sit down and peacefully work out commission toward secession and allow states to form their own alliances. Confederate into a mutual defense agreement and bid the 'swamp' a fond farewell."

"Rightism has its problems, but Leftism is a genuine psychological aberration, an actual psychological disorder. As support for that statement, I offer absolutely every one of the current Democratic candidates for president. Leftists say they love humanity in general, especially the poor. In fact they hate other people as individuals – including themselves. However, they’re clever hypocrites that disguise this with rhetoric about unicorns and rainbows."

Doug Casey

"Technology comes.

It causes a massive shift in the public consciousness…

The 'powers that be' go on record saying it’s a threat.

And then they outline all the ways we need for them to save us…

To wield it for themselves.

It’s the oldest trick in the book.

Problem: It works every time."

Chris Campbell

"Imagine working and your pay goes all to the government or the 'democracy'. The 'democracy' decides what you will get. The 'democracy' turns out to be an impossible way to make the countless decisions that have to be made in order to get people to work effectively and economically to produce what other people need, and then to distribute these goods when, where and how to make people happy. The attempts at democracy as a substitute for prices and markets fail. Invariably, a bureaucracy of power-seekers accumulates power and dictates. Marx conjured up such concepts as the 'dictatorship of the proletariat', a kind of democracy of the working class. Instead, every attempt at socialism either fails because it doesn’t deliver the goods, or else it’s transformed into command-and-control by bureaucrats, administrators, managers, politicians, none of whom themselves face the control by those they claim to be feeding, clothing, housing, etc. The consumer is definitely not king in any Marxist system."

Michael Rozeff

"…Don’t be fixing up the economy, 18-year-olds. You don’t know anything about the economy. It’s a massive complex machine beyond anyone’s understanding and you mess with that your peril. So can you even clean up your own room? No. Well you think about that. You should think about that, because if you can’t even clean up your own room, who the hell are you to give advice to the world?"

Jordan Peterson

"Once you admit that the individual is merely a means to serve the ends of the higher entity called society or the nation, most of those features of totalitarian regimes which horrify us follow of necessity. From the collectivist standpoint intolerance and brutal suppression of dissent, the complete disregard of the life and happiness of the individual, are essential and unavoidable consequences of this basic premise, and the collectivist can admit this and at the same time claim that his system is superior to one in which the 'selfish' interests of the individual are allowed to obstruct the full realization of the ends the community pursues."

Friedrich Hayek
