I reported in September that three events marketed to libertarians that were scheduled for this past fall had been “postponed”, but it looks like at least one of the events has been cancelled altogether, without any notice or refunds being issued by the organizer. LibertyFest NYC has been going on every fall since 2009, and…...
Yesterday, Bill Clinton said “I personally believe even if it takes a change in the law, the president should honor the commitment the federal government made to those people and let them keep what they got,” referring to Obamacare’s false promise of people being able to keep their existing health care plans. Today, Democrats are announcing…...
Wow, just in time! I mean, it’s almost like they planned it this way or something. By the way, why didn’t Ted Cruz or Rand Paul do anything to stop this?… This content is for Monthly Premium Membership and Yearly Premium Membership members only.Join NowAlready a member? Log in here...
“Who would feed the poor?” You’ll often hear statists say, in discussions with anarchists. Rather than explain the total economic conditions that would change and make food cheap and abundant, it’s usually easier to tell them that private charity would step in. Statists of course scoff at the notion, surely without the coercion of taxation,…...
Gun control has preceded pretty much every genocide, ever. Gabby Giffords is a gun control advocate. These people don’t want to persuade us into disarming. They want to write on a piece of paper that it’s a crime for us to own them, and send men, who are ironically enough armed with guns, to break…...
You own your computer, so surely, nobody has the right to use your property without your permission, right?

Across the globe, over 2 billion people are sending over 144 billion emails a day, and nearly every single one of those messages can easily be intercepted by someone other than the recipient. Even without the NSA spying on us, the insecurity of the protocol that makes up for so much human communication today, should…...
It has been said that society is just nine meals away from anarchy. Didn’t I feel stupid when I ate nine meals right away and still had to pay taxes. Sure enough, even after the “government shutdown” still, no anarchy. What happens though, if the people who depend on the State for their meals, can’t…...
#RaiseTheWage was trending on Twitter today, and there is just too much fail in these trends to respond in 140 characters. So I decided to grab some of the images and respond to them more thoroughly here, because minimum wage is one of those things that really displays the idiocy of central economic planning better…...
At least 17 mercenaries of the United States Federal Government have lost their lives in their efforts to end others, since the partial “shutdown” of the government began just over a week ago. Normally, the families of the fallen killers are given what the cult refers to as a “death gratuity”, a quick hundred grand…...
