Dear friends,
Today I'd like to make a few points that concern not so much what we believe in, but how we think about it, how we present it, and how we fight for it. It starts from a simple question:
Introduction: Why don't you like the State?
People often ask me, why are you against the State, what has the State done to you, personnally? Is it so terrible not be allowed to trade legally in drugs, or to pay a little money in taxes?
Well, yes, it is terrible, those are crimes committed against me. But there's much more than that.
The question is actually threefold.
1. First of all, yeah, why don't we like the state? What is the gist of our opposition to the State?
2. Why does it matter so much? There's a lot of things I don't like, but I don't make causes worth fighting for out of them. Is it just a political opinion, a preference, or is more than that?
3. And finally, there are many ways to answer this question. Which one is the best, and how best to sell in order to be convincining, in order to win?
The following is my answer to these three questions.

Even if you don't consider yourself a Libertarian.
Even if you don't consider yourself a Libertarian.
Not to quibble with you, Mike Darancette, but I'd have written, "Especially if you don't consider yourself libertarian."
The only moral economic system and the only one that works.
We shouldn't even call ourselves libertarians: we're simply people who have a basic understanding of how the world operates, and what are the basic requirements for growth and civilization.
This is exactly what libtards don't have.This is why every thing they want to do has a negative effect on the true interests of the country.
Who want to promulgate pornography and sell drugs with no restrictions.
Promulgate pornography? I'll give you partial credit for spelling it right, but you should really study up on the definition.
