A libertarian discussion about rule of law. And how to change the world...

If it were up to Gary Johnson, the Libertarian Party's 2018 Senate Candidate in New Mexico, lobbyists would stop coming up to him with their hands out like they want something free. If you liked this, check out Alex Jones: "Sometimes I want to get on YouTube and just let loose..."

The U.S. military industrial complex is all too enthusiastically helping the government of Saudi Arabia massacre civilians and children in one of the world's poorest countries, Yemen. As multiple Silicon Valley tech giants coordinated a blanket ban of Alex Jones across their social media platforms for "glorifying violence," the Saudi government, a client state of the Western military industrial complex with firm backing from the U.S. federal government, actually did violence to a crowded market full of innocent civilians going about their business. In fact, the airstrike deliberately targeted a school bus (via memeorandum ) in a public marketplace carrying children home from summer school, resulting in 43 dead, 63 wounded. This is a blatant act of terrorism and a crime against humanity, brazenly committed by a coalition of the world's governments. Reuters will shows you some very sad pictures in its report linked to above, like this following picture of a b...

THUS BEGINS the Humble Libertarian's list of the 100 most famous libertarians ! Number one on the list is: God. Are you one of the many who thinks that libertarianism is somehow incompatible with Judeo-Christianity? Do you think God–– especially the God of the Bible, of the Abrahamic religions–– is no libertarian? He Most Definitely Is. It wouldn't hurt you to crack open a Bible. God is the most libertarian Person there ever was. In the Bible when God created humanity.... Did He have a lot of rules? No, just one, single, simple rule: "Don't eat the fruit of this tree." Government on the other hand... IRS TAX CODE WTF!!!!!!!!1 And a lot of people think we were supposed to break God's rule, and become like gods. And know Good from Evil. Just not without a price. And the Book of Genesis names it. The price of knowledge is unhappiness. Becoming a self conscious animal is rough going, because you end up realizing that you're g...

Bakkt by the career financial criminals that bitcoin was invented to protect you from! Quoth The Verge : "New York Stock Exchange owner is launching a bitcoin exchange The Intercontinental Exchange, the operator behind the New York Stock Exchange, has announced that it is creating a new company called Bakkt that will hold and manage people’s cryptocurrency. The platform will be powered by Microsoft cloud tech and plans to begin with trading and converting bitcoin to US dollars and other fiat (government-backed) currencies as 'bitcoin is today the most liquid digital currency.'" First they ignore us. Then they laugh at us. Then they fight adopt our disruptive technology in a mad dash before someone else does, so at least the inevitable will hurt them less than the rest of their entrenched industry establishment. Then we profit. It's the circle of life. What we're seeing happen now in the short history of cryptocurrency and the broader histo...

My purpose in writing this essay is to evaluate the immigration policy that is commonly supported by conservatives today, especially in the years leading up to and including the Obama-Trump era in U.S. politics, and to show you how this immigration policy is not conservative in any way, how its underlying arguments and mindset are entirely foreign to the American conservative tradition, and how it in fact has far more in common with the ideas and mindset of radical leftist ideologies like those of Karl Marx and Joseph Stalin. Nailing down a definition of conservatism is no easy task, but generally American conservatism has been characterized by an intellectually rigorous understanding of and commitment to rule of law, individual liberty, and limited government. 1. A conservative immigration policy would not violate anyone's individual liberty. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain un...

Oh boy A story that defies understanding until you realize... how old the parents are. It's a boy! And he's five. Beck Laxton, 46, and partner Kieran Cooper, 44, have spent half the decade concealing the gender of their son, Sasha. "I wanted to avoid all that stereotyping," Laxton said. I'm confused. Is being stereotyped as a boy worse than being stereotyped as a court jester with an extra chromosome? "Wha--! That is so offensive!" Agreed. So why did she do it? "Stereotypes seem fundamentally stupid. Why would you want to slot people into boxes?" On a hunch I checked out her blog to see how opposed she was to slotting people into boxes: I may be wrong, but this appears to be a woman whose whole life is boxes. The premise for this unstory is that the parents wanted to prevent any gender stereotyping, so hid the child's gender from everyone to let him [sic] grow unstereotyped. The problem is that the parents already know...

The first of many globally successful private cryptocurrencies over the last decade, Bitcoin is history's most profitable investment so far. To understand why, we first have to fundamentally understand what money is and why it's so valuable. If you want to start investing in cryptocurrency, it's important to understand these fundamentals first. One of the easiest ways to lose a lot of money investing is by not having a deep understanding of what you're putting your money into. "Invest in what you know." Peter Lynch is the legendary American investor and mutual fund manager who averaged a 29.2% annual return (more than doubling the S&P 500 stock index) from 1977 to 1990, the best performance of any mutual fund over that period in the world. The assets under his management grew from $18 million in '77 to $14 billion by 1990. He's famous for saying, "Invest in what you know." CryptoCurrency Is Private Money If you...
