You Should Be Able to “Dear John” The State

“Meet Ray. We’ll call Ray a conscientious objector, because he acts out of conscience. People confine this term to those who object to military service. But why do those persons object? A conscientious objector is someone who wants the right to divorce a service provider or institution. He is disgusted by what is done in his name under the rubric of democracy, appalled at what is done with the money extracted from him in taxes. He wants to terminate his support.  You may think Ray is noble until I tell you to what he objected: State schooling, otherwise known as ‘public schools.'”

Bulgarian government resigns amid protests

“‘We have dignity and honour. It is the people who put us in power and we give it back to them today,’ Borisov told parliament, adding that he would not participate in an interim government.  Bulgaria has been shaken over the past week by protests that initially were about soaring electricity prices but which have turned into nationwide demonstrations against the right-wing government in general.  The clashes left dozens of people wounded and scores were arrested with demonstrators fighting running battles with riot police and vandalising government buildings in the capital Sofia.”

Guerrilla surveillance camera destruction hits the U.S.

Guerrilla surveillance camera destruction hits the U.S.

“It started in Berlin: Anarchists, donning black bloc attire, hit the streets at night in pairs, small groups or alone to smash and dismantle the CCTV surveillance cameras adorning the city streets.  The anti-surveillance project quickly spread throughout Germany, to Finland, Greece and hit the U.S. West Coast this month. A group identifying itself as ‘the Barefoot Bandit Brigade’ released a statement claiming to have ‘removed and destroyed 17 security cameras throughout the Puget Sound region,’ with ostensible photo evidence published alongside.”

Christopher Dorner and the Chaos Inherent to Government

nodrop6

“The LAPD and surrounding police departments were out in full force, their penchant for unleashing deadly violence without warning on no more basis than a hunch on open display. In truly military fashion, police even unleashed a surveillance drone as part of the search. Understandably, many felt unsafe.  And for what? While bringing Dorner in — or down — was clearly a priority, the way in which he was pursued, the pile of resources devoted to his capture, and the unprovoked violence inflicted on civilians made it clear that that priority wasn’t rooted in public safety.”

Scotland’s independence could see descendants worldwide eligible for passport

“Scotland First Minister Alex Salmond told ONE News he would want to offer citizenship to an independent Scotland to as many descendants as possible. The offer could also allow citizens to live and work anywhere in the European Union.  ‘I think like Ireland, Scotland would want to use its global reach in the most effective way and make that sort of inclusive statement,’ said Salmond.  Salmond’s Scottish National Party swept to power on the back of a promise to hold a referendum on independence.  ‘Scotland’s a country of five and quarter million people, we have a reach internationally, across the world we’d want maximum entitlement to citizenship,’ said Salmond.”

The Italian Patient: Resisting Berlusconi’s Charms

“Other populists are also gathering votes in the race to the finish line. One of them is Beppe Grillo of the protest movement ‘Movimento 5 Stelle.’ Grillo travels around the country on a ‘tsunami tour,’ hates Merkel, doesn’t want to repay a cent of debt and is seriously calling upon Al-Qaida to bomb the parliament in Rome, saying that he would even provide the terrorists with the necessary coordinates. Polls estimate that Grillo has the potential to capture 20 percent of the vote. He could become the third-strongest force by securing the support of the sizable number of undecided Italians who are weary of politics.”

Scotland – In Or Out Of The UK?

“Prime Minister David Cameron last night launched a defence of the United Kingdom as his government prepared to put the ‘facts’ about Scottish independence to the ­public.  He also criticised the SNP government for giving the illusion that the referendum result was already ‘in the bag’ by last week’s publication of a transition document with a timetable for full statehood following a Yes vote in 2014.  Cameron said: ‘Britain is admired around the world as a source of prosperity, power and security.’  Britain has built up ‘world-renowned’ institutions such as the NHS and BBC, he insisted and ‘fought for freedom’ in two world wars, leaving ‘unbreakable bonds’.”

The UK – In Or Out Of The EU?

“Many British people are fearful that a referendum may create economic strife with the EU, whist many others feel that the referendum could set them free of the EU debt. (The UK has plenty enough debt of its own.)  So, then, what is the point? Is Mister Cameron truly sowing the seeds of freedom? Or is this mere political posturing? Is he annoying the EU needlessly? Or is he possibly simply thumping his chest in order to diminish the number of votes that may be lost to UKIP (the UK Independent Party) in the election?”

Karl Hess: Tools to Dismantle the State

Karl Hess: Tools to Dismantle the State

“Karl Hess was a noted speechwriter (for Barry Goldwater among others) and author, and later in his life became known as a tax resister and market anarchist.  In this video from a Libertarian International conference in Stockholm in 1986, Hess speaks about everything from his time as a speechwriter for Barry Goldwater to Euclid, the impending collapse of global communism, children’s education in America, the dawn of the personal computer, new management styles in business (he somewhat accurately predicts the way Google treats its employees based on Cray Supercomputers’ management style at the time), and several other fascinating topics.”

Oil and Water: An Armed Citizenry and a Police State

portallogo3

“So, it is the worst of times and it is the best of times. It is the worst of times in terms of the expansion of federal administrative law. It is the best of times in terms of the inability of central governments to impose their plans on their populations apart from a vast expansion of the money supply, which is going to lead to the undermining of the welfare state and the destruction of federal legitimacy in the eyes of the people.  It is more of a train wreck than it is a tipping point. It is more of a collision between assertions on paper in Washington versus the expansion of monetary digits, which is also taking place in Washington.”
