Can someone walk me through the logic at 0:59? I'm having troubling understanding how he gets from, if we are the government than anything done to the individual becomes voluntary. I'm missing something in my reasoning to completely understand this statement. THanks!
@BanjonotBenjo He refers to the identification of the individual with the government. If the subject is the same as the ruler, then whatever the ruler does to the subject is being done by himself, not by another.
Rothbard. Brilliant. That's all that needs to be said. Anatomy of the State explains and exposes so much so clearly. Rothbard makes you rip off your rose-colored statist glasses after reading this. Thus is a must for anyone who has ever once had a thought about the worthlessness of the state. Rothbard is on the correct side of history. Fight fascism, read Rothbard. Don't forget that it's not Leff vs. Right. It's the state vs. You.
Sound reasoning.
