Thomas More's Utopia was not a recommendation. It was a warning.

The road to evil is paved with socialist intentions.

You either limit the government, or you limit the scope of your life. Why is the government that precious to you in the first place?

Emergencies” have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have eroded.

There can be no socialism without a state, and as long as there is a state there is socialism. The state, then, is the very institution that puts socialism into action; and as socialism rests on aggressive violence directed against innocent victims, aggressive violence is the nature of any state.

Dear Anarcho-Communist,If you and I ever find ourselves in a stateless society, have no fear. Just mention that you are a communist, and I promise I will never try to 'oppress' and 'exploit' you by offering to trade with you, or by offering to pay you to do work.Sincerely,Larken Rose.

People, imperfect and corruptible are society's building blocks. Political theories evading this reality are a catastrophe in waiting.

If your political theory requires humanity to 'evolve', then you do not have a theory.... You have a dream.

Socialism, or communism as it is sometimes called, is merely a secular religion, where the State becomes a god.

It's WW2 and there are wage controls in place. Instead of health care, companies decide to offer employees shoes. Having absorbed those costs, they later lobby for every company to be required to offer shoes. That calls forth regulation and monopolization of the shoe industry. Shoes are heavily subsidized. Every shoe must be approved. Producers must be domestic. They must adhere to a certain quality. They can't discriminate based on foot size or individual need. Prices rise, and some people lack shoes, so the Affordable Shoe Act forces everyone to buy into an official shoe plan or pay a fee. Here we have a perfect plan for making shoes egregiously expensive. The entire country would be consumed with the fear of being shoeless if they lose their job. The left wing calls for a single shoe provider to offer universal shoes and the right wing meekly suggests that shoe makers be permitted to sell across state lines.Meanwhile, libertarians suggest that we just forget the whole thing and let the market make and deliver shoes of every quality to anyone from anyone. Everyone screams that this is an insane and dangerous idea.
