https://youtu.be/LQ-mwS-ZF_I ...government is an institution that has a territorial monopoly on the use of violence. Anyone skeptical of monopoly for economic reasons must also be skeptical of government. More importantly, government is the only agency in society that is permitted to fi nance its existence with aggressive violence against nonviolent human beings, namely taxation. Edward W.

Decriminalize All Capitalist Acts Between Consenting Adults. Jonathan Newman, Ph.D. & Keith Knight

by Keith Knight | Jan 9, 2022 | Don't Tread on Anyone

https://youtu.be/z7vdWiUa-pQ We should compare the outcome of some event or policy to the alternative timeline in which that event never happened or that policy was never put in place. We should not compare before and after only. This alternative timeline, the “what would have been”. Is called counterfactual. Economics is all about counterfactuals because economics is all about choices. A choice is choosing one course of action over all others. The next-best course of action is the counterfactual (and the value of that next-best course of action is called the opportunity cost of the...

Cronyism: The Big Business, Big Government Alliance. Patrick Newman, Ph.D. & Keith Knight

by Keith Knight | Jan 7, 2022 | Don't Tread on Anyone

https://youtu.be/5uqGBlcxbNo Special-interest legislation is inherent in the very nature of government. On the free market, the network of voluntary exchanges, all activity is based on individual liberty and results in mutually beneficial outcomes. The competitive profit and loss mechanism incentivizes individuals to produce goods and services that consumers desire. However, the government, the legitimated monopoly of power, lacks this mechanism and produces outcomes that are harmful to society. The incentive structure is different: unlike the Invisible Hand of the market, individuals that...

DECLASSIFIED: CIA Assassination Manual (1953)

by Keith Knight | Jan 2, 2022 | Don't Tread on Anyone

https://youtu.be/73Sq50YKR5c ...the conspiracy theorist asks himself the question cui bono? Who benefits from this measure? If he finds that Measure A benefits X and Y, his next step is to investigate the hypothesis: did X and Y in fact lobby or exert pressure for the passage of Measure A? In short, did X and Y realize that they would benefit and act accordingly? Far from being a paranoid or a determinist, the conspiracy analyst is a praxeologist; that is, he believes that people act purposively, that they make conscious choices to employ means in order to arrive at goals. Murray N....

Curtis Yarvin is Wrong About Libertarianism. Ace Archist & Keith Knight

Likewise, it is absurd to believe that an agency with legislative powers can preserve law and order.

This, however, in no way prevents people from simultaneously regarding the law as a body of definite, politically neutral rules amenable to an impartial application which all citizens have a moral obligation to obey.

https://youtu.be/MHnw5F1RmLE The Jimmy Dore type of leftist (the ones who are anti-state but also support social safety nets) could have most to everything they want in an anarchist society in the form of mutual aid societies.
