1. The purpose of human life is to prosper and live happily.

2. The function of government is to provide the conditions that let individuals fulfill that purpose.

3. No person, group of persons, or government shall initiate force, threat of force, or fraud against any individual’s self, property, or contract.

Revolution will happen when humans have the balls to stand up against their corrupt leaders.

hugo chavez a tyrant go FUCK YOUR SELF!

So the Muslim brotherhood in Egypt was who the United States wanted to govern when the Egyptian people overthrew the real US installed tyrant? I agree with you to a degree on Chavez but I think you're a little far off the mark on the rest of this stuff.

So the Revolution in Serbia and the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine did not follow this book and method? The leaders of those revolutions said they did so I'm not exactly sure where you're coming from.

He gives the book away for free on his website so it wasn't really a money making commercial or anything like that.

Occupy Wall St. should have followed this book. So many mistakes with Occupy, one of the biggest was that there was no leadership only this ultra left wing hippie dogma that "We're all leaders man."

Many other mistakes as well but lack of leadership was the biggest one or perhaps too many leaders.

Its time to stand up to the capitalist people haters ruling the world. We have all we need on this planet yet we need to work a third of our life just to survive ? Life must be beautiful and prosperous. Now its just a struggle in a broke system.

[Sidarta Guatama]

This whole video was a confusing commercial for a book. Tapping into a basest instinct of all people for revolution of the self.

@2:53 oh why don't you bust a cap in the interviewer's ass, mate?

push man too far and they will come out of the wood work to take back what's theirs.

There could never ever never never ever be a revolution in America. I'd bet everything I own on that, including "my" life. (even though I don't own it. (the government owns our lives). Non-violent revolution would not work here, because those in power would never step down w/o a fight & American have no stomach for standing up to their government. We're talking about a people who watch Jersey Shore & Housewives of whatever. Those people are going to start a revolution? LOL Yea OK. Dream on!
