Voluntaryist living in CO. I'm an introvert and very opinionated. This blog is about the freedom of humans; thought and action. We don't need a state to govern us. The point is to put the idea of liberty into any mind and let it blossom.

Rebellious Nature

It is almost instinctual to disobey orders. Why? Because we are born free and would like to remain as such. When given the choice, in contrast, we are respected and given the choice to fail or prosper. -Shared by Elle.

"If we are attacked, then we have a right to attack back. Whoever has destroyed our villages and towns, then we have a right to destroy their villages and towns. Whoever has stolen our wealth, then we have a right to destroy their economy. And whoever has killed our civilians, then we have a right to kill theirs." But the U.S. gov't will work double-time to find a way to distinguish themselves, as benevolent. -Shared by Elle.

#3: The interrogations of CIA detainees were brutal and far worse than the CIA represented to policymakers and others. Beginning with the CIA’s first detainee, Abu Zubaydah, and continuing with numerous others, the CIA applied its enhanced interrogation techniques with significant repetition for days or weeks at a time. Interrogation techniques such as slaps and “wallings” (slamming detainees against a wall) were used in combination, frequently concurrent with sleep deprivation and nudity. Records do not support CIA representations that the CIA initially used an “an open, nonthreatening approach,” or that interrogations began with the “least coercive technique possible” and escalated to more coercive techniques only as necessary. The waterboarding technique was physically harmful, inducing convulsions and vomiting. Abu Zubaydah, for example, became “completely unresponsive, with bubbles rising through his open, full mouth.’” Internal CIA records describe the waterboarding of Khalid Shaykh Mohammad as evolving into a “series of near drownings.” Sleep deprivation involved keeping detainees awake for up to 180 hours, usually standing or in stress positions, at times with their hands shackled above their heads. At least five detainees experienced disturbing hallucinations during prolonged sleep deprivation and, in at least two of those cases, the CIA nonetheless continued the sleep deprivation. Contrary to CIA representations to the Department of Justice, the CIA instructed personnel that the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah would take “precedence” over his medical care, resulting in the deterioration of a bullet wound Abu Zubaydah incurred during his capture. In at least two other cases, the CIA used its enhanced interrogation techniques despite warnings from CIA medical personnel that the techniques could exacerbate physical injuries. CIA medical personnel treated at least one detainee for swelling in order to allow the continued use of standing sleep deprivation. At least five CIA detainees were subjected to “rectal rehydration” or rectal feeding without documented medical necessity. The CIA placed detainees in ice water “baths.” The CIA led several detainees to believe they would never be allowed to leave CIA custody alive,suggesting to one detainee that he would only leave in a coffin-shaped box. One interrogator told another detainee that he would never go to court, because “we can never let the world know what I have done to you.” CIA officers also threatened at least three detainees with harm to their families— to include threats to harm the children of a detainee, threats to sexually abuse the mother of a detainee, and a threat to “cut [a detainee’s] mother’s throat.”

Jeff Deist's talk from the Mises Circle event in Southern California on 8 November 2014. He argues that the state is losing its primary asset — namely, legitimacy in the eyes of those it would govern.

Very important unique:

"Why is it unrealistic to work towards its [the state's] elimination?

I noticed that this charge of being too idealistic is never applied to medicine -- it's never applied to crime.

Nobody ever says to an infectious disease researcher, 'you know there has always been disease; there's always been cancer. And it's really noble that you're having the race for the cure. And everyone is gonna run a 10K and there's still cancer. 

Nobody ever says, why don't you just spend your time trying to limit the duration of the common cold. Because you're never really going to get rid of cancer."
