Is Limited Government an Oxymoron?

Oct 27, 2009 - Freedoms only chance lies in the rapid dissemination of these truths before we reach the point of no return or bloodbaths. Vote ALL the bastards out. Both parties are complicit puppets where the best liars get ahead. Stop letting the CFR staff every presidency and the growing near entirety of every cabinet. Watch ALL these videos and share them worldwide. Freedom never wasn't the minimization of force. Harm no man, then do as you will. The golden rule - thats freedom.

Oct 28, 2009 - why does youtube stop certain posts?

waypasthadenough Says:

Oct 28, 2009 - It will be bloodbaths. History shows this. Most of the sheeple would rather die than think. The founders had to shove Liberty and independence down the throats of the loyalists, tories and Brit aligned indian tribes. Nothing about human nature has changed since then.

You said to go "read" your website...well there's NO TEXT THERE...there's just a bunch of links. How am i supposed to know which one you want me to click on?

Oct 30, 2009 - Worse case scenario in anarchy a government nobody deems legitimate, and everybody hates takes over. In that case the government is probably going to be libertarian as it will be difficult to enforce almost any law. So will probably be minarchist. Perhaps the punishments will be outrageous, but not likely. A dictator who take over in anarchy won't have much support, and therefore not likely to be able to be very big.

snoopyflick Says:

Oct 30, 2009 - The term anarchy=chaos involves circular reasoning. It only got the definition of chaos, because people thought no gov't=chaos.

Elasaltaculos Says:

Nov 3, 2009 - I didn't know Thomas Woods was an Anarchist... I thought he was a Minarchist like me. Just a couple of years ago, I used to call Anarchists idiots, but it was I who was the ignorant one. Since Thomas Woods is one of my favorite today, maybe I should start looking more into Rothbard's anarcho-capitalism

FreiheitKampfer Says:

Nov 3, 2009 - Good to hear! I had a few vids a while back calling anarchists morons.. I've since taken those down.. haha.. * embarrassing*

PersianPaladin Says:

Nov 3, 2009 - I don't believe in government, but I'm not a fan of capitalism either. However, I don't want to abolish it but just educate people to create voluntary co-operative resource economies. I guess I'm an anarcho-mutualist.

truevoice08 Says:

Nov 5, 2009 - You cannot not believe in government and not believe in capitalism either. Less government IS more capitalism. In fact, natural order is synonymous to radical capitalism or anarchocapitalism. You have to choose. A mixed economy is intellectually bankrupt.

frateradrastus Says:

Nov 5, 2009 - The word capitalism is far too loaded. People associate capitalism with exploiting labor overseas, wasteful consumer culture and the destruction of the environment. Why aren't arguments developed that addresses the leftist's concerns? It's not as if some of their grievances aren't justified. Ultimately, I think that a just anarchistic society would synthesize free markets with some communal ideals. Also, we would need to totally re-examine and re-think property rights.

frateradrastus Says:

Nov 5, 2009 - The only way a lasting government can form in an anarchistic society is through slavery or the creation of a cult. Any instance the wealth people generate is taken from them and they can't choose to leave.

finefilth Says:

Nov 7, 2009 - Bottom line: this is about a system built from the ground up to extort and thieve from the nation the way a parasite leech takes blood from its host body. This is organized corporate crime extortion by extortionists as a way of life.

finefilth Says:

Nov 7, 2009 - "When are we going to realize that Free Market Capitalism is an abysmal failure as was Communism?" I keep seeing this over and again. If you take nothing else away, please take this: by definition "capitalism" that requires competition (and by extension, genuine democracy) DOES NOT EXIST and has not existed "since the days of Andrew Jackson" (FDR). Karl Marx brand "Communism" has also NEVER EXISTED and never will. Look up the definitions. Bolshevik coup "Communism" was financed by wall street

finefilth Says:

Nov 7, 2009 - In 1913, the money power of the country was taken away from the people. By constitutional privilege it belongs with the Congress, but it was given up in the Federal Reserve Act. The Federal Reserve is no more Federal than Federal Express. But yet it has the power to determine the direction and use of money in our economy. If we could take that power back and put the Federal Resrve under Treasury, we start to be in a position of being able to control monetary policy on behalf of the United States

Nov 9, 2009 - Very true finefilth, What we have in the world today is state-controlled Capitalism which is a complete failure.

finefilth Says:

Nov 10, 2009 - thanks joey .. the monopoly is now systemic

HereticNix Says:

Nov 11, 2009 - i'm a (secular) libertarian (if i had to pick a name). but i find many of doug casey's anarchist points naive. he believes that private enterprise can manage EVERY sector of society. what about violent criminals and such? are we to believe that some sort of private tribunals could manage justice at all levels? there needs to be some limited governance to keep unfettered assholes in check.

tewj57 Says:

Nov 12, 2009 - Heretic, this is not an answer to your question, but just making sure you're aware that there's a huge amount of literature written to answer exactly your objection. Bruce Benson's books The Enterprise of Law and To Serve and Protect are a good start.

Nov 14, 2009 - the private production of security is the last monopolistic link to fall in the transition to a free society. It is the most heavily debated. For an introduction to this topic, seek the relevant chapter in Murray Rothbard's For A New Liberty, or "the production of security" by Molinari. In general, the same problems with monopolization, bureaucratization, and coercion apply to the production of security also.
