A Strategy for Victory – Hans-Hermann Hoppe, Ph.D.

https://youtu.be/70oW1bau5Tg Th e strategy was dictated by the quasi-libertarian, stateless medieval starting point, and it suggested itself “naturally,” fi rst and foremost to the top ranks of social authority, in particular to feudal kings. In a nutshell, it boils down to this rule: instead of remaining a mere primus inter pares, you must become a solus primus, and to do this you must undermine, weaken, and ultimately eliminate all competing authorities and hierarchies of social authority. - Hans-Herman Hoppe, The Great Fiction Watch on Bitchute

How Bitcoin Was Hijacked w/ Roger Ver & Steve Patterson

https://youtu.be/q1S3JXhH758 Bitcoin was designed to be digital cash, usable in everyday commerce, with minimal fees and fast transactions, and it worked that way for years. But today, Bitcoin is thought to be “digital gold,” not meant for everyday commerce, with high fees and slow transactions—a complete reversal of the original design. It’s discussed as a “store of value,” with little care for its utility as a payment system. - Roger Ver, Hijacking Bitcoin: The Hidden History of BTC Roger Ver is the founder of Bitcoin.com, and Steve Patterson is the founder of the Natural Philosophy...

Production Precedes Distribution

Production Precedes Distribution

The progress of civilization has meant the reduction of employment, not its increase. It is because we have become increasingly wealthy as a nation that we have been able to virtually eliminate child labor, to remove the necessity of work for many of the aged and to make it unnecessary for millions of women to take jobs. A much smaller proportion of the American population needs to work than that, say, of China or of Russia. The real question is not whether there will be 50,000,000 or 60,000,000 jobs in America in 1950, but how much shall we produce, and what, in consequence, will be our...

Anti-War Quote from 400 B.C.

Anti-War Quote from 400 B.C.

To kill one man is to be guilty of a capital crime, to kill ten men is to increase the guilt tenfold, to kill a hundred men is to increase it a hundredfold. This the rulers of the earth all recognize, and yet when it comes to the greatest crime — waging war on another state — they praise it!… If a man on seeing a little black were to say it is black, but on seeing a lot of black were to say it is white, it would be clear that such a man could not distinguish black and white… So those who recognize a small crime as such, but do not recognize the wickedness of the greatest crime of all… cannot...

Faith in Markets or Faith Politics?

Faith in Markets or Faith Politics?

I plead for greater liberty and a more open world, not because I believe one system happens to be more efficient than another, but because those things provide a setting that unleashes individual creativity as no other system can. They spur dynamism that has led to human, economic, scientific, and technological advances… At its core, belief in capitalism is belief in mankind… My aim is freedom and voluntary relations in all fields. – Johan Norberg, In Defense of Global Capitalism

My Favorite Michael Malice Quote

If the government didn’t have a monopoly on security, only rich people would be able to have security just like when the government got out of other businesses, the only cars produced were limousines, the only clothes produced were tuxedos and the only food produced was foie gras. – Michael Malice

A Conservative/Libertarian Alliance

https://youtu.be/y-f9wLgBjJ0 Focusing on disparities also distracts from focusing on the principle at hand. Progressives often will oppose the “War on Drugs,” for example, on the grounds that certain demographics are disproportionately targeted for drug arrests. But this assumes that the state has the right to imprison people for victimless crimes, so all that police need to do is arrest more people at a rate proportional to each demographic. According to the Selective Service System, all men ages 18–26 must register for “the draft.” One way to approach this is to say that forced labor is...

Israel Winner of the 2003 Iraq Oil War

From the Foreword by Lawrence B. Wilkerson: “[T]he debate over whether oil was a principal reason for the 2003 invasion has waxed and waned, with one camp arguing that it absolutely was, while the other argues the precise opposite.” “Mr. Vogler, himself a former...
