"This hard thing is my property" That's what she said!

@Hdrete That's the man in orange himself: John Boehner crying...

Just a tip: increase your volume and work with the sound levels a little bit, I shouldn't have to crank up my audio and adjust the levels myself, just for your videos alone. nobody else does that, well, except for random people who don't know crap about what they're doing. All in all, great job covering the ridiculousness that is our govt., there are plenty of us who hate them just as much.

Law enforcement needs to shut down websites of counterfeit goods because they are linked to drug and human trafficking.

@tugger I learned from other libertarians explaining their philosophy.

Their free market ideas when put into policy always seem to work out that way, even when they claim they oppose that outcome.

Maybe you should take it up with your fellow libertarians.

@booley I disagree. I am an economic libertarian and I'm unequivocally opposed to the RIAA and copyright-based seizures. You should learn to understand ideology rather than take it upon yourself to act as an authority on a subject you have no clue about.

This is keeping someone who has lots of money from making more money.

So don't hold your breath waiting for outrage from the free marketers.

IF property = rights then those with more property (wealth) have more rights.

It's one of the reason economic libertarianism ultimately doesn't work.

@NoogLeader Do it with your own groups of friends. It would be friends share music with one in other. You can always just go to your local library and use their music collection and most libraries have a borrowing of materials process within each state. You could always build your music collection via your state library system.

Lobbyists pushed the gov't state department to pressure sweden to shut down torrent sites and criminalize their citizens for a long time now. they've been filtering out people from entering certain sites for a while. I suppose this is what was under the tip of the iceburg so to speak. Not really surprised.
