ANARCHY Ever reviled, accursed, ne'er understood, Thou art the grisly terror of our age. "Wreck of all order," cry the multitude, "Art thou, and war and murder's endless rage." O, let them cry. To them that ne'er have striven The truth that lies behind a word to...

Benjamin Tucker, Libertarian
by David D'Amato | Mar 22, 2018 | Featured Articles, Libertarianism
Often claimed by modern socialist anarchists, Benjamin Tucker fits better in the libertarian tradition. There existed, for a time, an alignment between labor reform and socialism on the one hand and individualism and free-market libertarianism on the other. Benjamin...
The Laissez-Faire Radical: A Quest for the Historical Mises
by Murray N. Rothbard | Jan 25, 2018 | Economics, Featured Articles
That Ludwig von Mises was the outstanding champion of laissez-faire and the free-market economy in this century is well known and needs no documentation. But in the course of refining and codifying his political views, Mises's followers have unwittingly distorted them...

Robert Anton Wilson: Mildly Puzzled All The Time
by David D'Amato | Dec 4, 2017 | Featured Articles
Robert Anton Wilson was born Robert Edward Wilson on January 18, 1932, in Brooklyn. That distinctive middle name, Anton, was the first name of his maternal grandfather, who left Trieste — today Italy, then the Austrian Empire — to escape military conscription, which...
Why Doesn’t James Scott Want to Talk About Property?
by Jeffrey A. Tucker | Nov 30, 2017 | Featured Articles
One of the most exciting books of 2017 is James Scott’s Against the Grain: A Deep History of the Earliest States (Yale 2017). It deals with all the salient questions (that I care about in any case). In prehistoric times, how did human beings discover how to feed...
TGIF: Is Secession by Referendum Libertarian?
by Sheldon Richman | Oct 13, 2017 | Featured Articles, Libertarianism, Sheldon Richman
I have concerns about secession by referendum. Individual secession, of course, is no problem; that's simply libertarianism. Before I get into my reasons, let me stipulate that smaller political jurisdictions are on net preferable to larger ones if for no other reason...
Three Libertarian Arguments Against War
by Jason Kuznicki | Oct 12, 2017 | Featured Articles
I show a lot of interest in vice issues. I belong to a population that has been—fairly or unfairly—associated with vice. But in a sense, vice legislation is small potatoes. The biggest thing separating conservatives from libertarians is the question of war. As I see...

Friedrich Nietzsche is a notable German philosopher, popular for his concept of "the will to power" as well as "overman" (sometimes translated as "superman"). Contrary to some people's beliefs, Nietzsche was not a nihilist and the overman was his answer to how we...

The “Least Performing” Circus Continues at the US Navy (and Elsewhere)
***Have been out of pocket for conference attendance*** The US Navy and the Pentagon continue the grand sclerotic and arthritic three ring circus of staggering inabilities to deliver any exquisite platforms on time, on budget and within scope. The sterling track...
Be Careful What You Ask for
You wanted America First. You got it. Did you think it wouldn't be conceived in national collectivist terms? The clue's in the name. It's America First, not Americans First.
Phony Noninterventionists
Call me naive, but I increasingly suspect that much of today's "left" is not antiwar on principle. Rather, it's anti-American war because, in its view, America (not just the government) is rotten to the core: bourgeois, racist, patriarchal, heteronormative, blah,...
America First is Always the Sober Alternative to War on the World
My shortest post ever. Ironic that Israel has more US senators than America.
My Views
I discuss the news around deportations, the military parade, No Kings, and Iran v Israel. ALP
Anti-War Blog – It’s Never Enough
It is hard to be up to date with any coverage for an ongoing war, especially in the social media age. Things move fast, the information that is real, verified, takes time to be confirmed and understood as factual. Lies, deception and sensationalism spreads fast, it’s...
