This blog entry is dedicated to everyone who has argued with me as a statist or as an anarchist. I’ve tried defending both point of views. This is the result. Many thanks to, Adam Kokesh, Brian from High Impact Flix, Lord Coondog, Ida Foxy Queen, and even indirectly Larken Rose.
My mind is free. Do you want the Red Pill too? We may have found the One already. His name is Adam Kokesh and he’s running for president in 2020.

But Do you want to dispel the illusions of government as well?? If so, Keep reading.
Freedom requires fealty to absolute morality. The camels nose of “Exceptions” from absolute morality, even for great benefits, destroys it all.
The need for Government is an illusion created and perpetrated by those who mean to rule over others.
If you’re searching for “how” to fix government, your question is premature. The first question should be “why”. Once you truly come to terms with “why” and if it’s not to get free stuff at the expense of others, you’ll want voluntarism instead, as the norm. When you’re ready to become free then you’ll also be ready to spread the good news; and eventually the consensus you worked to build and defended as a statist, so fervently, will naturally build a consensus of voluntarists.
You’ve been searching for a better way. Somehow you knew deep down inside that that political consensus building aimed at taxation to fill public coffers, deprives everyone of their money and property. That feeling is where we begin to explore the illusions of consensus. The illusion of the consent of the governed vs the pained reality of absolute morality.
Eventually, peacefully and naturally, we will create the “How”; and the creation will be based on absolute morality instead of the concepts of conquest and force of arms, as is the norm today.
Absolute morality is unconditional respect for other people’s lives, property and treasure; not to protect them from themselves. Not to expect that if enough people say it’s ok to take anything from another person that it’s really ok, legitimate or moral. The act of Causing Involuntary sharing is not altruistic, legitimate or even close to moral. Call me selfish? I’ll call you a fool because altruism is the back bone of absolute morality.
All of my contemplation of opposing concepts of conquest and voluntarism have finally come to a head.
Voluntarism has won. Morality exists. It’s real. And It can be found in books. For me, it started with Adam Kokesh’s Book FREEDOM to gain an insight into self ownership and then on to even more books and videos on Anarchy, Voluntarism, Agorism, and Libertarianism. There is a library of books to choose from. To learn to be free... Have at it!
But, In all of these books we can find Concepts to live by but no perfect blueprint to make it happen. That has to come naturally as a grass roots, peaceful rebellion, against being ruled as subjects of an empire.
If we could already conceive how to create the perfect government we would have it already. If we could already conceive how to create a totally voluntary society we would have one.
Since there is no perfect government, we should not have any. We must be personally and simply governed by the absolute morality described above and in more detail in books.
Codified Statutes do not determine morality and cannot be micromanaged by codes and ordinances. Absolute morality is necessary for true freedom to flourish.
Everything I hear statists present, and I use to present myself, are all in line with the indoctrination of us by our school systems. Sorrowfully most of us do not even recognize that the current paradigm is based on conquest and force of arms; accepting them as the norm and fighting for them without even realizing why! They do so while making up as many straw-man arguments to defend the violence and its benefits, as there are people on Earth.
While all of the fearful concepts of “Human Nature” are real, and the law of the jungle exists; kill or be killed; it exists because our society still respects the Right and Rule of Conquest and Conquistadores.
George Washington and his merry band of thieves conquered the territories of the United States, by force of arms, treaty and purchase, but instead of another monarchy, the founding fathers gave themselves a republic that is supposed to respect people’s lives, property and treasure. It never has though, immediately instituting taxation to pay the war debts. And property taxes as protection fees from the indigenous claims; and whiskey taxes to operate the extortion racket of an Empire that should have never been created in the first place. ( The Federalists usurped the power).

The violence of Conquest is still the basis for title insurance companies to insure land titles.
People strive to defend the tenants of our public education and “fee simple” land ownership allowing the Government to retain its illegitimate control over it all. They allow the consensus to build to such levels, with force of arms, so threatening that no one can disobey.
We all strive to be free but some never realize it is the mental bonds created BY (emphasis added) the current system which prevents us from creating a voluntary society of free individuals and families.
Others who have been able to dispel those violent dystopian tenants don’t yet know exactly how to get to a voluntary society or how one will work.
No one has a blueprint. But we know some things that should not be allowed to happen; things that government should be restricted from doing; yet when people hear the truth they cower in fear of the unknown; desperately searching for ideas how to fix the current paradigm instead, creating straw-men with even less of a clue, having never been able to see where true freedom comes from in the first place.
Congress must be disbanded in its current form that claims power over our lives. Population levels have grown to a ratio of 750,000 people for everyone ‘one’ representative. Our voices are muted at this level, and given the constitution’s recommended ratio of 1:30,000, it is illegitimate by its own guidelines. The current ratio allows the special interests to control every election and every bill considered by congress. This is pure tyranny by taxation without adequate representation. I use to call for the expansion of congressional seats to fix this issue but it’s pointless until they can no longer write laws of forced taxation and until they can no longer create laws which create rules for victimless crimes. There should NOT be black market in a free society.
The laws they have created have caused the middle class to be surrounded by 25 million entitlement addicts and the 435 people charged with protecting my freedom and my treasure can't hear me over the Communist powwows being screamed above all else as we cover our wagons and hunker down until the Calvary comes..... they are coming aren't they??? Aren't they??? Instead they pass laws that violate their own constitutional rules of privacy by requiring us and our employers to submit evidence of our own income and “allowable” deductions. What a farce! But we all pay because of the consensus building force of arms against ourselves. This is pure insanity. Is it not?
We are the Calvary. Voluntarists Spreading the gospel of peaceful freedom.
There is no perfect fix for our government; except by ending Taxation; disbanding congress, as it no longer operates with our consent; and to turn the courts into privately funded but elected arbitration realms; turning away from opinion statutes into sound rules of voluntary and absolute morality found in our trusted books. Like the English language has rules but no one to enforce grammar except our trusted books; for a simple analogy.
Slavery based on genetics was abolished because it was an absolutely abhorrent institution. It was abolished without regard for the economy or so to speak without regard for “but who will pick the cotton?”. Likewise Taxation, as instituted today, is as abhorrent as Slavery of old was.
It must be abolished for the same reasons with the same fervor, also without regard for who will build the roads.
Arguing the consequences of abolition is pointless. It’s like arguing the benefits of violence.
Once the rule is set, the market will adapt itself voluntarily. It did before and can do it again.
Are you ready for the Red Pill yet? Follow the White Rabbit.
