Government is Force

Ron Paul is for self-government when compared to the Constitution. He's an anarcho-capitalist. Proof.

Here is something I made. I painted those countries on world map which have their own Mises Institute. It's crappy I made it in 5 minutes.

Those which are on different color are not pure "Mises Institutes" but something similiar like Rothbard Institute. I took all these from Mises.orgs link list. I'm sure that there is mistakes and different opinions which is "real"(lol) Institute and which not, but I found that this distinction had to be done. Biggest critique is that map shows too optimistic picture of Austrian school. It would be more realistic if colors would be brighter when Institute is more popular in that country. That would be hard to make, but if Institutes would publish history of their individual visitors we could update this map every year and see which countries have Mises.orgs and how much popularity they have gained.

I am not sure mises.ru ever took off. If you remove Russia from your map, the picture becomes less optimistic.

That police beating took place not far from where I live. A LOT of right wingers around here had no problem with the guy getting beaten. Yes, he had clipped a cop and was on the run for nearly a half hour, but that was excessive force if I've ever seen it. Here's an article about how the cops didn't get in trouble at all.

Looks like the guy is dead.

Yeah that's why it's unrealistic. If all Institutes would publish their popularity it could be possible to make MUCH more realistic map. You could contrast that information to the statistics of how much economic websites are viewed in specific countries and which is proportion of Institutes from them.

These were just released by a German newspaper.  Evidently the corpses were innocent civilians.

Why did they take pictuers with the corpses, what is wrong with these people?

They believe they're dealing with sub-humans. Otherwise there would be no way they could kill, or even sign up to the army.

They did what they were trained to do and they're proud of what they were trained to be proud of.

Isn't it time for a second thread, folks?

The Regression theorem is a memetic equivalent of the Theory of Evolution. To say that the former precludes the free emergence of fiat currencies makes no more sense that to hold that the latter precludes the natural emergence of multicellular organisms.
