Joel Salatin on John Stossel: Raw Milk, Farms, and Food Freedom

Joel Salatin discusses raw milk, farms, food freedom, and government intrusion with John Stossel. Joel Salatin is one of my favorite speakers and writers about both the culture of back-to-earth farming as well as libertarian philosophy. Tweet

College Degrees Aren’t Always Necessary

New York Times: The college degree is becoming the new high school diploma: the new minimum requirement, albeit an expensive one, for getting even the lowest-level job. While this article hits on an important point, a college degree by no means is a guarantee to a job. In terms of cost/benefit, I think college is incredibly [...]

Thoughts on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and Inauguration

Dr. Cornel West articulately raises concerns about Obama posturing on Martin Luther King, Jr. today. King was adamantly anti-war; Obama has increased war efforts primarily through the drone program in numerous countries that haven’t done a thing to the U.S. Dr. West also raises concerns of the prison-industrial complex; Obama, even after using illegal drugs [...]

Do Not Forget U.S. Killings

Life is fragile. The horrific events in Connecticut show what one lunatic can do. While people rightfully mourn such a tragedy, do not forget that thousands of innocent individuals around the world are struck off the earth at the hand of the U.S. government funded by each and every taxpayer. Tweet

Both Romney and Obama Are Dangerous

Mitt Romney is dangerous. Barack Obama is dangerous. Neither of them want to leave you alone. Neither of them want to end needless and atrocious wars overseas. Neither of them will dare espouse an original thought. Both are pawns. Both want to use government force to their advantage. But go on, get emotionally attached and [...]

Don’t Vote for What You Don’t Want

Unfortunately, this point is not easily understood by people continue to spout the dogmatic and rehashed excuses in support of the two-party system. In reality, it’s a pretty simple concept: don’t vote for what you don’t want. There is no reason to get emotionally attached to these two corrupt, hypocritical, and tyrannical political parties.

Opposing War and a Military Draft

War is the health of the state. A military draft is repugnant to the very notions of individual liberty, freedom, and peace. The fact that a high level general in the U.S. military is calling for a reinstatement of the draft is very frightening and cannot be ignored. Tweet

Paul Ryan Is Not Principled

Paul Ryan talks a good talk (sometimes), but in the end he votes for more spending, more government intervention, and military adventurism. Romney doesn’t even have anything close to a coherent and consistent philosophy or record. And no, I am not voting for Obama/Biden either. Nothing will change so long as we continue to support [...]

Don’t Blame Me

Don’t blame me. It’s not my fault that your corrupt, anti-liberty, pro-war, sold-out political parties nominated corrupt, anti-liberty, pro-war, sold-out candidates. I will NOT vote for Romney or Obama. Tweet
