You people who don't listen to parts 2 and 3 are missing the boat... and quite possibly ignoring the best opportunity to gain your own freedom. But I don't blame you... after you hear how unconventional Part 1 is, the cultural, media, and social indoctrination you have been exposed to since Day One kicks in and tells you "don't bother with any more of this nutty bullshit." And that's why you will work your asses off until 65 and die at 68.
It's funny because even though the right now owns practically the whole of the media and systematically removed opposing views from public discourse, faux news watchers still use the same old tactics to attack anyone to the left of Barry Goldwater. There's no social mobility in America, the rich have their parents to support their coasting, while the poor get to work 12 hours a day at wallmart for a boss who yells at them when they don't do something right.
I could not of put it better myself ! I have been banging on about
this for years, this is brilliant and spot on !......just ignore the bit in the
last minute though where
schooling is referred to as a priviledge as schooling is not education but indoctrination preparing you for the capitalist society which is described so very very well !
Hahaha computer voice. Thing about capitalism, is sure the bottom of the pyramid produce and do the labour, however their labour would be worthless if the classes above didn't buy the good.
You cannot trade labour in socialism, simply put. The belief that people can live off others is related to the idiom, the straw that broke the donkeys back. A society cannot rely on a few to provide for the masses.
...In the times prior to organised societies, say the Aboriginal for example had to get up each morning to catch a kangaroo to feed himself for the next few days. How is that "coercion"?
i agree with you theme that the 'protestant work ethic' is bogus but your arguments against capitalism leave me somewhat bemused.
I don't really understand the point you are making about the chocolate bar, Nat. If you don't want it, you don't eat it, thus are not charged. How does 'capitalism' impose the obligation upon you from birth? It seems to me if anything socialist paradigm is the one that imposes obligations upon the citizen unasked via taxes.
I think Naturyl is trying to bring into question the idea of private property [I think.] As the free association of people in combination with property rights inevitably produces a capitalistic society. Then with the addition of the coercive state that trys to "regulate" the market creates the corporatism we suffer under today.
Nat's analogy of the chocolate bar is the 'gift of life'. So your reply doesn't make sense, since no one has the option of choosing to be born (nor are informed of any obligations relating to being born).
The swifty is not "find something to eat" but "everyone must redeem the value of life by having a job, but not thinking or philosophising". And "all men are free, but within limits."
Well,Ricky Retardo, if i want to partake of the chocolate bar called "life," someone has to pay for it, eh? I suppose my alternative is to hang myself, right, libertarian genius? You wanna buy the rope? I guess it will be about $5.
I get what your saying. Contribution is what is important over that of economic gain from our efforts. Its not really anti work, but in opposition to the idea that the most important work is the one we get paid for. I think most people if you explain it properly would agree. A stay at home mom may do work just as valuable as a mom in the workplace. A teacher may provide more valuable work than a baseball player though her pay is lower. In the future work for survival may not be necessary.

Do you want to be free or do you want to be ruled ? a law is a rule - if you want to be free you are at war with those who rule you (the state)
We want to be free and you want to rule us - this is the fight for freedom.
"history is the progression of the consciousness of freedom" - Heggle
It would seem that history has come to its end.
Many thanks for these fine pieces of work that were simply beyond most peoples intelligence but they're waking up (-A-)

As the people wake up you will get the credit you deserve for these master-pieces and for being so many years ahead of your time.
free; a state of existence exempt from authority, rule or control.
its obvious that to be free you cant have people rule you

Andrew,
Nat's analogy of the chocolate bar is the 'gift of life'. So your reply doesn't make sense, since no one has the option of choosing to be born (nor are informed of any obligations relating to being born).
The swifty is not "find something to eat" but "everyone must redeem the value of life by having a job, but not thinking or philosophising". And "all men are free, but within limits."
