If you look carefully enough, you will find the hand of the state making the mess in question.","author":"Jeffrey Tucker","tags":["anarcho-capitalism","anarchy","ancap","austrian-economics","austrian-school-of-economics","capitalism","economics","free-market","freedom","government","laissez-faire","liberty","markets","politics","regulation","socialism","state","statism","voluntaryism"],"id":107657,"author_id":"Jeffrey+Tucker"},{"text":"The instant that any government obtains a monetary printing press, it becomes a deeply dishonest government, empowered to rob people by stealth.
