Prof. James Otteson believes it is extremely important to think about what it would take for you to fight for your liberty. Liberty is a fragile gift, and if this question remains ignored, our liberty will likely diminish.

For me was when I woke up that corporations and banks use government for gain and hurt the people through inflation and regulation.

Ron Paul 2012!

Liberty is a precious gift... Not from the government! Anarcho-capitalism ftw

Pt 4 - There is no good excuse for standing idly by in an apathetic state of complacency to the increasingly barbaric dictates of this dystopian state. FREEDOM - use it or loose it!

Pt 3 - , learn about the strawman and your rights under common law vs maritime admiralty law (aka be the sovereign) invest your retirement accounts to boycott investments in monsanto and cargill and other evil corporations, the possibilities are endless and they don't have to be a burden. Do anything and everything you can and feel good about what you do, and dont feel bad about what you dont do. Start small and add more as you can adjust. There is no good excuse for standing idly by in an a

Pt 2, stop all unnecessary capital expenditures, stop shopping at big box stores, grow your own food, start neighborhood timebanks and other cooperatives, get your food directly from small local organic family farms through CSA's or farmers markets, buy organic and raw dairy, ask your grocers if their meat and dairy were humanely raised in non-CAFU and non-factory farms, home school your kids or have your neighborhood cooperative hire their own teachers, learn about the strawman and your rights

Thanks for all the great vids. With regards to this question, I would replace the word "fight" with some other word like "counter" or "overcome" or "transcend". It seems better to avoid instilling the vision of war and other physical means of resistance when we are so overmatched in that arena. Replace them with practical actions that are not intimidating and which will be unstoppable when enough people wake up and get with the program. Stop paying federal taxes, stop watching TV programmin

I'll be willing to fight if and when fighting becomes a viable option. As it stands, fighting would be suicide. There's no specific target to attack, and any targets that exist are eminently replaceable.

Even if you won, then what? There's no system in place for changing laws. There certainly isn't any method available to have a public vote.

Everything will collapse soon. It has to. This system is unsustainable. I'll fight then, but on a small scale. I can't fight the whole world.

All these commeters complaining about corperations on the largest video-sharing website in world owned by a tech beheamoth. And they wonder why big businesses push them around.

For the record, I'm not advocating political violence. Any modern radical political change requires popular support, which clearly isn't coming any time soon.

[Arcturistheballer]

@LibertarianChristian its the other way around, its the government using the banks/corps

[mazerrackham001]

Given all this and more, the fact that politicians and TSA agents aren’t being gunned down in the streets is amazing to me. It also suggests to me that this will never happen, no matter how many rights are taken away. If people were willing to put their lives on the line instead of just bitch on the internet, shit woulda gotten real-real by now. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, but it certainly seems to indicate that the American people are no longer a force to reckon with.

[mazerrackham001]

The government can also force the courts to dismiss cases levied against the government by claiming such cases would reveal classified information, creating unlimited government immunity from judicial review or checks on government power.

And just to keep things light, you have to get permission from the government to marry someone, which is a total pisser.
