Who is that quote from?

Good video, but it got a bit irrational at 4:17

.

In the vote between Ron Paul and Hitler, you'd pick Hitler? Perfect statism is indistinguishable from apocalyptic death, perfect minarchism is indistinguishable from utopian anarchism.

.

Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Knowing that statism is immoral, ask yourself, would voting for Ron Paul be a moral improvement upon the current system?

.

There's a real reason why anarchist ideals flourish in more minarchist nations.

@trentstrong It's hard to listen to the voice.

Anyway, Ayn Rand wasn't for a "small government" or even a "limited government". She was for defining what a government's proper role is, which is to never initiate force. That's not miniarchism, that's also a form of anti-statism. The only reason she was against anarchy is because competing law cannot coexist. That is all

Part 2

And if the LP is ever successful they will quickly turn on the anarchists, turn on their supposed fellow travelers. The anarchists will then learn from political libertarians the same lesson that the Russian anarchists learned from the Bolsheviks -- we are fellow travelers no more."

Part 1

"As libertarianism becomes increasingly political, it will become increasingly hostile to individualist anarchism, because anarchism poses as great a threat to the political ambitions of the LP as it does to the conventional defenders of government. I have no intention of amending the slogan Smash the State to read Smash the State Except for the LP.

Bast yet, IMO!
