Stop Scaring Ourselves (AYMFL 0010)

We are defeating ourselves by hyping the power of the forces arrayed against our efforts for liberty. We need to build ourselves up, not continually knock ourselves down with fear after fear after fear. Whether it’s Agenda 21, the NDAA, “black-bagging,” indefinite detention, the NWO, GMOs, economic collapse, fluoride or something else that scares you silly, the first step is to relax and remain calm. If you hype the threat to other people, if you make them scared, you reduce the chance that they will find the courage to speak out, resist and build alternatives.

Who’s the Bad Guy? The Government or the Corporations? (TAOL 0017)

The left says the corporations are the bad guys. The right says the government is the bad guy. Which one is it? We solicited opinions from dozens of libertarians and we analyze them in this episode. I had a blast recording the conversation with John. This is episode 17 of The Art of Liberty podcast and I hope you enjoy it!

Stop being Negative and Start Building! (AYMFL 0009)

Why are libertarians so negative? We toss around words like “sheeple” and “tard.” We brag about hating the state. We found efforts like Cop Block and The Art of NOT Being Governed. Have we forgotten that we need to be builders and creators? That we need to build a broad coalition in order to actually put our ideas into the mainstream? Watch the video to hear my thoughts on this important topic.

Libertarian Dispute Resolution in the Here and Now

There has been quite a lot written about dispute resolution in a stateless society by the likes of Murray Rothbard, Robert Murphy and others. A lot of it is quite sensible. But it’s just words on paper until we put it into action. The idea of defense agencies was just words on paper left to be explored at a later date until I started Shield Mutual. Likewise, we need to start eating our own dogfood, as software developers say, on the topic of dispute resolution in the libertarian community.

Want Peace? Set Aside your Guns (AYMFL 0008)

If we are for peace, then we have to put away the guns. If we keep the guns as part of our activism, then stop sounding like hypocrites by talking about peace.

More on the Liberty Rapid Response Team (AYMFL 0007)

To realize our vision of freedom, peace and prosperity, we have to get proactive. A few days ago I proposed a liberty rapid response team here. I expand on that idea in this under-5-minute video. Give it a watch.
