A libertarian is a person who believes that no one has the right, under any circumstances, to initiate force against another human being, or to advocate or delegate its initiation. Those who act consistently with this principle are libertarians, whether they realize it or not. Those who fail to act consistently with it are not libertarians, regardless of what they may claim.

Fundamentally, there are only two ways of coordinating the economic activities of millions. One is central direction involving the use of coercion - the technique of the army and of the modern totalitarian state. The other is voluntary cooperation of individuals - the technique of the marketplace.

Whatever the issue, let freedom offer us a hundred choices, instead of having government force one answer on everyone.

@dcjogger I'm not interested in travelling to fight WWIII and I'm too old for that kind of entertainment these days, but a civil war here at home sounds like it might liven up my twilight years and knock some rust off long unused skills. Consider it paying it forward to my grandkids.
Does anyone get the feeling that the Smollett, free college, and Epstein stories are just diversions from the real issues of debt, wars, and the police state?
There is so much evidence that the USA is collapsing now that you can't ignore it, but no one does a damn thing.
Something epic is coming like the French Revolution, US Revolution, the Civil War, WWII, or the Soviet collapse.
There is no serious effort to end the wars, reduce the debt, or restore the Bill of Rights. The elites are getting everything they want and the 99% don't care.
Insanity.
Maybe there is no hope, but one wonders if Americans cannot at least make an effort to think of solutions or wake people up so that they can prepare instead of just waiting for a spark that leads to collapse.
Can't anyone say anything?
Why not print up bumper stickers, pass out flyers, protest, go on hunger strikes, rent billboards, or make a website?
Couldn't there be a free market solution to the collapse? Couldn't there be mass awakening? Shouldn't freedom go viral?

A society based on the freedom to choose is better than a society based on the principles of socialism, communism and coercion.

It rankles me when somebody tries to force somebody to do something.

One who uses coercion is guilty of deliberate violence. Coercion is inhuman. -
