Everything-Voluntary.com | The state only deals with people by hurting, killing, caging, and robbing them. It wraps these actions up in hundreds of thousands of pages of demands, orders, mandates, regulations, prohibitions, licenses, and certificates; but the bureaucratic maze which supposedly allows individuals to escape unscathed is an illusion. If you succeed, they tax you; if you fail, they fine you, but you are extorted regardless. If you resist, they kill you; if you submit, they cage you, but your freedom is obliterated either way. If a particular freedom is widely enjoyed, it will be forbidden except to those who purchase permission in the form of a license.

NotBeingGoverned.com | It just might be the most feared and bastardized term in the English language. People have some extremely vivid imagery in their heads associated with the word “anarchy”, but at the same time become overwhelmed with confusion once getting two sentences deep into a conversation about abolishing government. In fact it is actually extremely rare for serious discussions on this topic to take form, due to the knee jerk reactions that are provoked in people when they are faced with the possibility of a world without authority.

MarcStevens | John seems to believe the law may be applied without any regard to evidence. He believes written instruments called constitutions and laws apply because judges say so; actual proof is not necessary. He even admits several times the applicability of law, jurisdiction, is only an issue of law, not evidence. He seems to accept that laws are magical, that there doesn't have to be evidence proving the laws apply. John insists there doesn't have to be any proof the laws actually apply. The law applies because men and women say so. We've heard this claim before.

OutsideTheRealityMachnine | Approaching the subject of human suffering and anguish, from an honest viewpoint, gives you all sorts of experience to explore: people are abused, they are minimized, they have severe nutritional deficits, they live in poverty, they are surrounded by the threat of violence, they receive poor and confusing educations, they are exposed to toxic chemicals and drugs, they develop weak immune systems, they don’t know how to cope with peer pressure to conform, they never learn what freedom means, and so forth and so on.
