My opinion is "no." Here is why. Humans are animals. Even a feral dog or cat can show compassion to something, but in the end, survival dictates the most primal standards of conduct. Experts have confirmed that kids generally behave themselves because society teaches them to behave properly. Left a...

I got in late, but... You're still confusing Capitalism with Corporatism? Come on already... What are you trying to imply? That humans should be bossed around so they don't hurt/scam others? What if those who control people are the ones who hurt/scam others? Psychopaths like to control others, they ...

911 nutters don't watch Zeitgeist movies, they watch "official" State-approved propaganda.

Back then it was secession from the British empire what made Americans free. The Americans of today very rarely consider secession from Washington DC. They dream with fixing their "country" and reforming their federal govt. Too much pride and ignorance is preventing them from considering secession, ...

Lack of Goverment interference is a form of that self same interference. The banks lobbied for , and got a repeal of the glass steagall act, then they could use all their money for gambling, sub prime mortgages. they were able to get their way by giving generously to the politicians on the relevent...

To end wars power must be descentralized . It is impossible for the funds acquired by small states, fractions of today's nations, to finance wars of today's magnitude. There will only be conflicts, in which neighbors could be able to isolate the oppressor and not only prevent other conflicts but ma...

Orwell: Do you agree with the Austrian theory just in principle at least?

I really hope it is. The tyrannical govt of the US in Washington DC has created more problems than solutions. America was a great idea but as soon as federalism kicked in America was dead. Time to split up. Each state to its own. To see what system is best we need the diversity that a federal/centr...
