Big government is a myth you nimrod. Wall Street and corporations own government. It's privatize the profits and socialize the losses. Free market capitalism is a neo-liberal myth. No such thing exists.
"For decades"...if you don't see Reagan and Palin as just as big-spending and unreliable as the rest of the GOP establishment, then that's cowardly because they are.
The Tea Party's "counter-conservatism"??? Like most emotion-driven folks (liberals), he is living in his head and thinks things he concocts up there is reality and has actually taken place in the physical world. The Tea Parties are about less taxation and smaller, manageable and accountable government. That's mostly all of it. Some gripes here and there, such as border security... it's a TEA PARTY... a la BOSTON TEA PARTY. It's conservative. Like our our nation's founders were. And M.L. King was
I hope everyone who watched this was really struck by what Barry Goldwater said, and I hope that if any of you dont know who Ron Paul is that you find out very soon.
As per the "debt ceiling" - what's the point of having a debt ceiling if it can be arbitrarily raised in order to defend or justify more debt spending? There's no point in it. You can't spend your way out of debt. YOU CAN'T DO IT.
The main problem with the Tea Party is that it criticizes mainstream politicians in both parties, for out-of-control spending and for big govt, but advocates a neo-con foreign policy that is currently 58% of the federal budget and growing larger every year. You can't suggest that you want limited govt and lower spending and then suggest that we can continue expanding war costing more and more money and usurping more and more liberties. The two are completely contradictory to one another.
Frank Rich thinks Mitt Romney is the presumed 2012 Republican front-runner? Didn't he lose the straw poll to Ron Paul?
The establishment just doesn't get it. In another news, Representative Ron Paul will be returning to Washington. The Neo-cons plot to topple the good Dr. was not successful thanks to a willful and intelligent community of the 14th district. Will be right back after these short announcements......
@anarchylogic Government serves a purpose, so you mean no more BIG government. Careful what you state liberal nut jobs take in every word and twist it to make themselves seem credible.
@joe035 Agreed, though the diffrence I find is in government and governance. Government, of all forms becomes mans greatest plague, conversley governance can be done much better on a very small and very local level.
Governments of all kinds eventually become the evil they perport to defend us from.
@anarchylogic Agreed the founders warned about this and that is why our elected officials are required to uphold the constitution. Regrettably they seem to think it is open for interpretation and liberal whack jobs advocate for this behavior. Many people especially libs think we live in a Democracy instead of a Republic & don't know the difference.
Amen to Barry Goldwater! Our time is coming to restore liberty and the Constitution; this madness of the totalitarian state will self-destruct. The programs will collapse one on another because there is no money; they have squandered it all vote buying.
@billyboy647 We should never put our public school system in the hands of public unions. They've dumbed our kids up. Trillions in unfunded obligations I guess these Anti Tea Protesters think we can print endless amounts of paper and claim it has value? I don't know what is more astonishing the ignorance of the Anti Tea Partiers or the arrogance?
my problem is everyone says limtited gov but they always expand it. If not directly they hire a company to do the gov's work. so essentiaty they do not limit it. Case in point- Blackwater
As Ron Paul said at CPAC, 'Government is the enemy of liberty.' He's exactly right. I've never seen government work in my lifetime and have no confidence it can be 'fixed' to do anything positive. It merely steals from me, restricts my liberty, kills people around the globe and wrecks the economy. There's nothing remotely good about Washington, DC and the horrid monster called the US Federal Government.
@RedShirtArmy The fault can't be placed on government. It is the Passive American and their lack of interest and concern of those who are supposed to represent them. Catchy slogans, namebranding campaigns, party affiliations and special interest money have been winning public seats over individual merit for some time. Jefferson said in the best forms of government tyranny finds its way through a slow proggression.
I don't think anyone believes that "getting back to pre-industrial capitalism" is synonymous with the so-called "Right," excepting neocons and leftists. Read some Gottfried, Nisbet, Kirk, and I think you'll see that the "right" does *not* see the life of men reducible to economic concerns. That is the view of the "left," and always has been...
I think what most of those who incessantly criticize the TP's don't get, is the fact that the TP movement is only just getting underway, and will probably morph into something else with more defined parameters, another political party perhaps. "beholdmyswarthyface" says they most go to the Left, but we already have that with the neocons, as Paul Gottfried amongst others, have shown. What I see happening is more a conglomerate of libertarians and Old Right, perhaps...?
@hartforest Another political party is no good. Deception is an unfortunate reality and will always permeate anything political. We need to stick to ourselves for real change. Electing good people isn't going to fix a broken system we need a return to the constitution. it's not going to happen by electing more officials. The Gates been open once you allow the Government to set the constitution aside electing more people is pointless.
I think the problem is more that the political has come to permeate, through a vast bureaucracy, what has historically been non-political, rather than lies permeating the political. The vast majority of Americans have no desire for "a return to the constitution" because 1) the constitution has been buried underneath "constitutional law" that has little to do with original intentions, and 2) the "progressive" mentality inherently sees the whole of the past as oppressive.
If the vast majority of people believe that only in the future will we be "liberated" by surrendering to the "general will" in good Rousseauean fashion, and this can only be done through "progressive" measures, I don't think there will be any "getting back." People simply love their entitlements. My view of American politics is not one of "hope and change" of the whole, but of who will be less likely to invade my privacy, my associations, my family, etc.
$30K is for each person in America. That then becomes about $60K or more for each tax payer. Infants don't pay taxes. Neither do the people on wellfare, social security, or unemployment.

RouletteRog is absolutely right. Right-wing populism, as it is exploited by powerful interests, can only lead to fascism. The poor marginalized white Protestants are right to be disgruntled and angry; but they need to be lead in the right (ie, the Left) direction. And romantic yearning for the early days of unfettered pre-industrial capitalism isn't going to get us anywhere either.
Sorry but it was the left that introduced facism in this country. FDR literaly tried to copy Mussolini's facsist system, and called it the "New Deal". And you are 100% wrong that an enfettered capitalist system wouldnt get us anywhere, in fact it got us far out in fron of all other countries until we got rid of such a system, and such a system not only greatly improves material wealth but it also is the only system where men can br free, and it is that benefit which makes me most desire it.
I know that you've always been a champion of the Tea Party, Jack, but I'm afraid that I cannot join you on this. From my vantage point, there are only a handful of Tea Partiers who had the integrity to be even remotely critical of the Bush Admin/GOP just a couple years ago when they were spending money like drunken sailors. Most, from my vantage point I'd say better than 95% of the TPers, are just Republican shills jumping on the bandwagon.
The claim that Anarchy is Chaos is simply an uneducated and ignorant one.
The ideas of Anarcho-Capitalism have been around for a while. The best author on the subject, and Libertarian thought in general, is Murray Rothbard, who Ron Paul often quotes. His book, For a New Liberty, is a must-read for Libertarians.
Somalia is a good example for chaos, but not Anarchy. They have a communist democratic republic there. The government takes 100% of everything. A perfect example of government failure.
This sounds like sarcasm. But you should really look into it more.
Government has its paws all over Somalia. From the Soviet Union, to US/UN "aid", and the neighboring Ethiopian Government, all of which play a role at the unrest in Somalia. Without Governments, things would look MUCH different there.
In addition, the Somalian government itself, including the Militias, sponsor themselves by taxing local merchants heavily.
There is a lot more to it than can fit in Youtube's 500 character limit.
who was saying that, because it is totally untrue. an anarchy has no capital to conquer, and no government to overthrow. any hostile invaders would see never ending guerilla warfare.
I'm what you might call an 'anarchist' I think if you had one country that decided to abolish it's state, if the taxpayers of all the other nations combined decided to willingly contribute to some effort to subdue the freed people, it would probably be sucessful though costly to them.
But that's not a valid argument since the same can be said of any government.
That system came into existence when the system of Tribalism got replaced with the notion of monarchy and conquest when Europeans brought that with them during colonization.
That system now is vastly supported by Governments, not just the Somalian Government.
Which was the original point I was making. That Government has its paws all over Somalia, so one cannot call Somalia an Anarchy.
Anarchy is no government, so as you can see, Somalia does not fit the bill. It is in Chaos, but not Anarchy.
somalia has no government. only a part of it has a government, somaliland, and it is the only part of the country that can be somewhat safely visited.
That's not the point. You don't even need to use Somalia for that example. Some places are Chaotic and have a government, some places are not.
What's obvious is that having a government and not having one means nothing for the state of Chaos.
In Somalia, the parts that are Chaotic have very powerful Government action fueling them.
The point is that without that Government action, it wouldn't be in chaos. Second, that there is no spot on earth that's without government. But some are in chaos.

Thumbs up just so they don't delete your comment like they did with mine. These people are anti-government zealots. They won't listen to any reason. They just hate any and all government.
Though zealotry begets zealotry. =P Cause and effect.
No one here is saying there should be "no government" like in Somalia. ... most no one is. Some one said anarchy is preferable to totalitarianism. Can we just leave it at both of them really fucking suck and such up? Because for every Somalia there is a USSR.
1: ... it doesn't get deleted it gets hidden. Stop being a cry baby.
2: Ah, so a man who killed more people than Hitler is better than a horde of anarchists who have barely broken a million in its death toll? Further, Somalia is engaged in a civil war. Actual war is slightly different than anarchy.
Though none of the above is preferable. Stop splitting hairs.
2. No, anarchy is not possible, it cannot exist. Power always finds a place to rest its head. Humans by nature seek leaders. The problem is that in Somalia, the leaders are just the ones with the biggest guns and not necessarily smart or give a damn about the people. In the USSR even with the totalitarian state, they took care of their people. The famines weren't the government's fault. The crops failed due to drought.
1: ... no. Because if it were deleted I wouldn't be able to read it. Hidden, I can click "show" or "reply" and read the message plain as day. You are grossly over reacting.
2: I agree with this. Anarchy (rather good or bad) would never last because some one would rally power and start a government for whatever purpose. Even nomadic and tribal people had government. Hell, some pack animals could be described as having it. That said, you need to research the holodomor. The USSR created famine.
There is only one party with 2 branches. 1 party advocates corporate allegiance and cries that it is the conservative party and one advocates Federal Allegiance. Both advocate more Federal control and less Freedom. The only viable option for true conservatives is a disapproval of all of Washington. This does not mean hate. It means we want change and small legitimate constitutional Government again. Where we the people through our states are the Soveriegns, those that dictate the law.
All of the American media is controlled by only six corporations.
It's really obvious that the media is controlled. Want proof?
Ok, here are two. War on Terrorism, and Swine Flu.
After 9/11 happened, all the media was talking about terrorism, and going to war. Non stop for a month or two. Then, all the news stop reporting on the war. Not just one, all of them at the same time.
Same with swine flu. Scaring everyone to get vaccinated, report on new deadly pandemic. Then they stopped
@anarchylogic The rich will destroy us to get richer it is only logical. Those that have always want more. Corporations, big Government all manifestations of the rich trying to become richer. In German "Reich" means rich. The third "Reich" was literally the takeover of the country by the super rich.
"Germany's unforgivable crime before the second world war," Churchill said," was her attempt to extricate her economic power from the world's trading system and to create her own exchange mechanism which would deny world finance its opportunity to profit." (Churchill to Lord Robert Boothby, quoted in the Foreword, 2nd Ed. Sydney Rogerson, 'Propaganda in the Next War' 2001, orig. 1938.)
@LibertaerUeberAlles you think hitler was poor? and what about those who backed him? you think they were poor? Rich benefit the most from states. it's a wealth redistribution mechanism. The Capitalist makes the most at the expense of the laborors in our state protected system. If we had a true capitalist system people wouldn't have billions and billions of dollars while other who work just as hard have significantly less.
Though there may be some truth to that, I am more concerned about the near 70% of the people in the US that live directly or indirectly off of the money stolen from the producers of society by taxation. If a person takes the time to think about where their money comes from many will be shocked to find that even in some cases where the person works for a private company, the companies only or the biggest customer is government. (Oscar Schindler comes to mind). Food for all of us to think about.
Those of us who have jobs, are at least middle class, don't care for endless war, and don't wanna pay exorbitant taxes, don't have much need for the feds. It's simply there to protect the special interests and protected classes, rich and poor.
Middle class folks never get what they truly want with government these days. GOP is the party of corporate America and defense contractors, and the DNC is the party of the poor, elderly moochers, and unions.
The federal gov't's only legitimate purpose, in my view, is national defense (and perhaps setting immigration law and enforcement). I might even be open to competing currencies, so the whole "gov't monopoly on printing money" may not be all that worth it. I'm not a big fan of copyright or patent protection as a libertarian. I find it atrocious and distorts the market.
The rest of what the federal gov't does is to simply benefit entitlement moochers and those who profit from war.
Ideally, we should really just go back to a confederacy like before the Constitution was written. Have a basic bill of rights and all that, but don't let the federal gov't do ANYTHING it wants and totally ignore the Constitution. If it wants to impose something extraconstitutional on the states, it would need STATE approval, like with 9/13ths of the colonial legislatures under the Articles back in the day.
For whatever reason, the statists seem to think America is a UNITARY nation where the federal gov't can do whatever the fuck it wants, and states just have to lie there and take it. It sickens me. Have they no respect for the Founders or their vision?
The big gov't statists seem to forget that this nation was established as a REPUBLIC. The federal gov't was never supposed to do even HALF the things it does today! Those were to be left to the states. And don't give people any delusions that the state governments CAN'T DO all those things. States should individually decide whether it is necessary or in their interests to do these things and act accordingly, not have the feds tell them to do all this shit and exercise state branches of fed.
@Mossy500A Reply to morons who say that with the following: I believe that everyone should have their life, liberty, and property protected. A state of anarchy would put all those at risk every day. As a libertarian I believe that the prime duty of governemnt is to protect each for its citizens, and that drastically reducing it from its current size is both constitutional and pragmatic given that expectation.
America and its leaders are so lost right now, we seem to have temporarily forgotten who we are as a nation...I hope to God this turns out to be just a little blip on our "identity radar screen", and nothing more...we need to find ourselves again...and SOON!
That's a question I've been asking for a long time. I don't quite buy the tea party excuse that "we were asleep under Bush, but then we woke up under Obama." Seems a little convenient to me. It will be interesting to see if a person like Mitt Romney gets elected in 2012 if the Tea Party continues with such vigor. If they do, they will have earned my ultimate respect. If they don't, they will have proven to be neocons in disguise.
well, didn't you notice how the majority of democrats hated Bush but Obama got in and everything was just fine and dandy, and many people still believe that fucker can do no wrong. It will be the same. I have lost hope in people.
I am not currently a Democrat, and I have very little respect for most Dems these days anyway. It goes both ways. Republicans (especially those who are Teabaggers) were not really around when Bush was president. It is just as hypocritical when Democratic Party hacks defend Obama when he goes around copying everything Bush did in the last eight years. I do, however, like and respect the Southern Avenger. He is as willing to be as critical of mainstream Republicans as I am of mainstream Dems.
The implication that I gathered was that people were opposing Obama simply because he is black and they happen to be, for the most part, white. Assuming white people are going to be racist simply because they are white is racist.
I am on the semi far left, and I don't even think that opposition of Obama from the right is racist per se. To say otherwise would be as stupid as when neo-cons and pro Bush apologists accused progressives of wishing for the terrorists to win. Teabaggers are not motivated by racism, and United for Peace and Justice during the past decade were not motivated by Islamic jihadism. At worst, both sides might be motivated by shameless partisan hackery...
The knee jerk reaction from the left has been to accuse the Tea Party movement of being racist. People tried the voting track in 93 and all it got us neo-con spending. The entire country was founded by people who didn't like paying taxes and only now when there is a black man in the white house people think the position is racist? THAT is racism. If I misinterpreted your positon I apologize.
@steve0281 There is no such thing as racism. Only a love for your race. This can be strong to the point of hate of all others or just be a love for your own people while embracing everybody. By crying racism the left is saying no to white association and voluntary; grouping while saying blacks and everybody else are not "racist" for getting together with their own people. It is an unhealthy line of reasoning for whites because it forces them to look elsewhere and feel evil for natural feelings
My main issue is you cannot put faith in any party. They are both corrupt and far from ever being a redeemable fauna of our society. It should be torn down, and a new government to take it's place.
Thanks SA for another great video. Keep up the great work. I am a Tea Party supporter and I can't stand how liberal elitists try to put us all under one banner. They can't see us all for what we really are... freedom loving Americans who have put aside all differences in order to unite for one common cause. I see black, white, hispanic, young, old, gay and straight at the Tea Parties I attend. There is nothing wrong with us...we've just woken up, that's all. And boy oh boy... they hate that!
The Tea Party is not democrats or Republicans, but Americans that want their country back, not the party of no, but the party of Hell No.
Critics claim the Tea party is made up of few minorities or non whites. Another reason to have an immigration moratorium and stop importing millions of non whites that do not share our values.
The Tea party movement has given me the first real HOPE for CHANGE in my lifetime. I am a Democrat ready to throw the Bums OUT!
one problem.... people. If we are given our FREEDOM back... then... PEOPLE... need to learn how to relax and be kind to one another again. OUR government exposes OUR greatest weakness... we do not love one another. For we have forgtten how to love OURselves... Know thyself... your salvation is in yOUR hand,
Not no Government at all, Just government that is held to the Constitution or ran out. We recognize the need for a LIMITED federal gov, not just no government at all. Just hpnest Government, as honest and transparent as it can get anyway. Saying the tea Party is the party of no gov is doing a disservice to them. Some might want no fed gov at all but most realize a limited fed government and the rest left to the States is why America used to be known for greatness.
I'd take solace in the fact if a)The Tea Party was actually working to take both parties down, b) They weren't already being infilitrated by the pro war republicans (which you call neo-cons and are more honestly what conservatives have become) and Sarah Palin, and c) Were doing something instead of just making noise.
@uttles Yeah, I'm through with him too. He showed promise about a year ago, but lately he's gone back to being just another neocon douchebag on the radio who also happens to have a completely boring and pointless television show.
Jack needs to get syndicated. I want something to listen to while I'm at work - something that's intellectually stimulating and isn't neoconservative.
While Jack might argue the point about money, I think syndication would cause skepticism of what Jack's all about.
He does a great job at the moment, so I see no reason for a change. Sure, syndication brings his can opener to more people, but it also involves meetings with folks in dark suits carrying briefcases full of tilt it our way and leave these lines out.
truth has my ear. syndication seems to lack this.
YES, I Agree, would be Great if JH were on many more stations and channels across the country. But These dedicated and devoted Constitutional PATRIOTs Need to have Fortitude and Perseverance with remaining focused on the message of MINIMAL government, while resisting the temptations of compromising the Truth of Reality for Fame and Fortune.
yeah but beck unveils information about what goes on behind the scenes, about our history, how we got here, about our possible future, etc...better than anyone out there right now. i am a visual learner, so i LOVE the chalkboard, the visual aids, etc. he uses. i actually pay attention to this stuff now, when i never did before. talking heads just put me to sleep. so he's ok in my book still... :0)
Beck is a illuminati controlled lier and will lead you down the wrong path. If you like visual so much why don't you watch any number of good films, such as America Freedom to Facism or watch the zeitgeist films, please, pretty please!
ok, i am willing to look into that possibility. but can you tell me where you get this info about him, some facts & such? does that mean FOX is Illum. controlled too? and eveyone on it? what about the rest of the media? TV, radio? newsprint? internet? youtube? can u see where i am going here? do we ONLY trust those who tell us NOT to trust ANYONE? do we only trust A.Jones? but what if Jones is controlled too.... (just thinking out loud here, no disrespect to you) :0)
None taken and thank you for being open! I can't spout off facts on the fly, but I can tell you that once you've learned the background info on the fed and the irs, and you keep up with current events (blacklistednews, Mish, lewrockwell, asia times, etc), then you start to realize that all forms of tv media is controlled and most types of media, even internet, is also. Yes, even Jones to a certain extent. We have to start really scrutinizing everything that we are told. Please watch AFTF TX!
@jazzinnature081 Everything is controlled by the Feds who are controlled by the banks. We are programmed to think and feel certain way and to have certain emotional reactions to things. The federal Government can literally get people to believe whatever they want and side with them on every issue through control of the media and schooling. We are shown what we are supposed to accept and indoctrinated to unconditionally go with it
@Luigi84289 This is the flaw with Democracy. We must learn and strive to overcome this. Restore the Republic not live in a total democracy where the few that have benefit while we suffer as we vainly try to do the right thing with limited knowledge.
Apparently Murdoch and Rothschild have common business and family interests. (You can find the information online in the mainstream press; it's no secret.) It might explain why Beck now supports global warming.
I also read that Murdock and Faux's former CEO, Chernin, were big Hillary supporters. Perhaps their loyalty is to Israel and corporatism, not to America.
When you quote polls that don't include new primary voters, you do a disservice to the message of freedom. She's not at 16%. That's a poll of past republican primary voters. Early voter turnout was 3x normal and we already surpassed the total # of primary voters in 2008 - and the election is tomorrow. ;)
Big government is a myth you nimrod. Wall Street and corporations own government. It's privatize the profits and socialize the losses. Free market capitalism is a neo-liberal myth. No such thing exists.

As Ron Paul said at CPAC, 'Government is the enemy of liberty.' He's exactly right. I've never seen government work in my lifetime and have no confidence it can be 'fixed' to do anything positive.

@RedShirtArmy The fault can't be placed on government. It is the Passive American and their lack of interest and concern of those who are supposed to represent them. Catchy slogans, namebranding campaigns, party affiliations and special interest money have been winning public seats over individual merit for some time. Jefferson said in the best forms of government tyranny finds its way through a slow proggression.

I don't think anyone believes that "getting back to pre-industrial capitalism" is synonymous with the so-called "Right," excepting neocons and leftists. Read some Gottfried, Nisbet, Kirk, and I think you'll see that the "right" does *not* see the life of men reducible to economic concerns. That is the view of the "left," and always has been...

Another good one, Jack.
I think what most of those who incessantly criticize the TP's don't get, is the fact that the TP movement is only just getting underway, and will probably morph into something else with more defined parameters, another political party perhaps. "beholdmyswarthyface" says they most go to the Left, but we already have that with the neocons, as Paul Gottfried amongst others, have shown. What I see happening is more a conglomerate of libertarians and Old Right, perhaps...?

@hartforest Another political party is no good. Deception is an unfortunate reality and will always permeate anything political. We need to stick to ourselves for real change. Electing good people isn't going to fix a broken system we need a return to the constitution. it's not going to happen by electing more officials. The Gates been open once you allow the Government to set the constitution aside electing more people is pointless.
Luigi84289 1 year ago
@Luigi-
I think the problem is more that the political has come to permeate, through a vast bureaucracy, what has historically been non-political, rather than lies permeating the political. The vast majority of Americans have no desire for "a return to the constitution" because 1) the constitution has been buried underneath "constitutional law" that has little to do with original intentions, and 2) the "progressive" mentality inherently sees the whole of the past as oppressive.
hartforest 1 year ago
If the vast majority of people believe that only in the future will we be "liberated" by surrendering to the "general will" in good Rousseauean fashion, and this can only be done through "progressive" measures, I don't think there will be any "getting back." People simply love their entitlements. My view of American politics is not one of "hope and change" of the whole, but of who will be less likely to invade my privacy, my associations, my family, etc.

RouletteRog is absolutely right. Right-wing populism, as it is exploited by powerful interests, can only lead to fascism. The poor marginalized white Protestants are right to be disgruntled and angry; but they need to be lead in the right (ie, the Left) direction. And romantic yearning for the early days of unfettered pre-industrial capitalism isn't going to get us anywhere either.
beholdmyswarthyface0 1 year ago
Sorry but it was the left that introduced facism in this country. FDR literaly tried to copy Mussolini's facsist system, and called it the "New Deal". And you are 100% wrong that an enfettered capitalist system wouldnt get us anywhere, in fact it got us far out in fron of all other countries until we got rid of such a system, and such a system not only greatly improves material wealth but it also is the only system where men can br free, and it is that benefit which makes me most desire it.

I know that you've always been a champion of the Tea Party, Jack, but I'm afraid that I cannot join you on this. From my vantage point, there are only a handful of Tea Partiers who had the integrity to be even remotely critical of the Bush Admin/GOP just a couple years ago when they were spending money like drunken sailors. Most, from my vantage point I'd say better than 95% of the TPers, are just Republican shills jumping on the bandwagon.

The claim that Anarchy is Chaos is simply an uneducated and ignorant one.
The ideas of Anarcho-Capitalism have been around for a while. The best author on the subject, and Libertarian thought in general, is Murray Rothbard, who Ron Paul often quotes. His book, For a New Liberty, is a must-read for Libertarians.
Somalia is a good example for chaos, but not Anarchy. They have a communist democratic republic there. The government takes 100% of everything. A perfect example of government failure.

This sounds like sarcasm. But you should really look into it more.
Government has its paws all over Somalia. From the Soviet Union, to US/UN "aid", and the neighboring Ethiopian Government, all of which play a role at the unrest in Somalia. Without Governments, things would look MUCH different there.
In addition, the Somalian government itself, including the Militias, sponsor themselves by taxing local merchants heavily.
There is a lot more to it than can fit in Youtube's 500 character limit.

I'm what you might call an 'anarchist' I think if you had one country that decided to abolish it's state, if the taxpayers of all the other nations combined decided to willingly contribute to some effort to subdue the freed people, it would probably be sucessful though costly to them.
But that's not a valid argument since the same can be said of any government.

That system came into existence when the system of Tribalism got replaced with the notion of monarchy and conquest when Europeans brought that with them during colonization.
That system now is vastly supported by Governments, not just the Somalian Government.
Which was the original point I was making. That Government has its paws all over Somalia, so one cannot call Somalia an Anarchy.
Anarchy is no government, so as you can see, Somalia does not fit the bill. It is in Chaos, but not Anarchy.

somalia has no government. only a part of it has a government, somaliland, and it is the only part of the country that can be somewhat safely visited.

That's not the point. You don't even need to use Somalia for that example. Some places are Chaotic and have a government, some places are not.
What's obvious is that having a government and not having one means nothing for the state of Chaos.
In Somalia, the parts that are Chaotic have very powerful Government action fueling them.
The point is that without that Government action, it wouldn't be in chaos. Second, that there is no spot on earth that's without government. But some are in chaos.

1. Hidden, deleted, same thing.
2. No, anarchy is not possible, it cannot exist. Power always finds a place to rest its head. Humans by nature seek leaders. The problem is that in Somalia, the leaders are just the ones with the biggest guns and not necessarily smart or give a damn about the people. In the USSR even with the totalitarian state, they took care of their people. The famines weren't the government's fault. The crops failed due to drought.

Hell, some pack animals could be described as having it. That said, you need to research the holodomor. The USSR created famine.

There is only one party with 2 branches. 1 party advocates corporate allegiance and cries that it is the conservative party and one advocates Federal Allegiance. Both advocate more Federal control and less Freedom. The only viable option for true conservatives is a disapproval of all of Washington. This does not mean hate.

Though there may be some truth to that, I am more concerned about the near 70% of the people in the US that live directly or indirectly off of the money stolen from the producers of society by taxation. If a person takes the time to think about where their money comes from many will be shocked to find that even in some cases where the person works for a private company, the companies only or the biggest customer is government. (Oscar Schindler comes to mind). Food for all of us to think about.

Those of us who have jobs, are at least middle class, don't care for endless war, and don't wanna pay exorbitant taxes, don't have much need for the feds. It's simply there to protect the special interests and protected classes, rich and poor.

The federal gov't's only legitimate purpose, in my view, is national defense (and perhaps setting immigration law and enforcement). I might even be open to competing currencies, so the whole "gov't monopoly on printing money" may not be all that worth it. I'm not a big fan of copyright or patent protection as a libertarian. I find it atrocious and distorts the market.
The rest of what the federal gov't does is to simply benefit entitlement moochers and those who profit from war.

Ideally, we should really just go back to a confederacy like before the Constitution was written. Have a basic bill of rights and all that, but don't let the federal gov't do ANYTHING it wants and totally ignore the Constitution. If it wants to impose something extraconstitutional on the states, it would need STATE approval, like with 9/13ths of the colonial legislatures under the Articles back in the day.

If they don't, they will have proven to be neocons in disguise.

At worst, both sides might be motivated by shameless partisan hackery...

It is an unhealthy line of reasoning for whites because it forces them to look elsewhere and feel evil for natural feelings
