Bancarotta!: an Allegory About Central Banking - Or - What Ron Paul Didnt Say in End the Fed BANCAROTTA!: AN ALLEGORY ABOUT CENTRAL BANKING - OR - WHAT RON PAUL DIDNT SAY IN END THE FED Author: M S King Number of Pages: 126 pages Published Date: 21 Oct 2015 Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform Publication Country: United States Language: English ISBN: 9781518730351 DOWNLOAD: BANCAROTTA!: AN ALLEGORY ABOUT CENTRAL BANKING - OR - WHAT RON PAUL DIDNT SAY IN END THE FED So I see the fact that they talk less about regional government is probably… is not a good sign. So this sort of set the stage for the American people to demand that we have an audit. Now one of the things that has most contributed to the perception that Congress is corrupt, is earmarking. We regularly see cases where campaign contributors receive earmarks or earmarks seem to be traded for votes. Can you talk a little bit about why that is? Yes, I see this in a constitutional manner and think that one of the problems that we have faced in the last 50 years has been the steady erosion of constitutional power, the giving up of the prerogatives to the executive branch, as well as to the judicial branch. Well, the money came out of the district, so why should we let the bureaucrats or the executive branch decide who gets the money? So, I see this in a very strict constitutional sense. I defend strongly the responsibility of the Congress to designate every penny they spend. Yet, I think all the spending is too much; so I vote against all the appropriations. Besides, the definition of earmarks is different. I want the Congress to designate where every penny should be spent. Where do you come down on that? There was one time in my life when I was trying to do it outside the Republican Party, but…. In the post-meltdown world, it is irresponsible, ineffective, and ultimately useless to have a serious economic debate without considering and challenging the role of the Federal Reserve. Most people think of the Fed as an indispensable institution without which the country's economy could not properly function. Johnson should have said that any kind of drug prohibition violates the principle that each individual is sovereign over his own body and mind. In addition to favoring political pragmatism over principle, Johnson's answer obscured the ways in which prohibition aggravates the problems it is aimed at solving. He alluded to some of those side effects but did not clearly connect them to the question he was asked, and he shied away from the logical conclusion that the problems caused by prohibition can be eliminated only by eliminating prohibition. The heroin question came from Maureen Morella, a New Jersey woman whose year-old son, Jesse, suffered brain damage after snorting heroin with his friends in One important point to make about this incident is that something very similar could have happened with alcohol.

If you attended a conspiracy position like that of the author, you will find this book very much interesting and intriguing. But if you have some economic background before approaching this book, you might refute some of the thesis put forward. MS King told a story of an Italian banker, who was the first to ask people for deposits of gold Bancarotta! MS King told a story of an Italian banker, who was the first to ask people for deposits of gold into his storage vault, and then lend out these deposits to others in need. The operation was done over a bench and hence the name of the bank well, these days a lot of people would have known. When Mordecai, the banker, found people not drawing their own deposits at the same time, he began to lend out money in the form of notes multiple times the deposits he had collected from the others. He charged interest on the lending money and shared a small part of it with the depositors..

  • Markets Not Capitalism Explores the Gap Between Radically Freed Markets and the Capitalist-Controlled Markets That Prevail Today
    individualist anarchism against bosses, inequality, corporate power, and structural poverty Edited by Gary Chartier & Charles W. Johnson Individualist anarchists believe in mutual exchange, not economic privilege. They believe in freed markets, not capitalism. They defend a distinctive response to the challenges of ending global capitalism and achieving social justice: eliminate the political privileges that prop up capitalists. Massive concentrations of wealth, rigid economic hierarchies, and unsustainable modes of production are not the results of the market form, but of markets deformed and rigged by a network of state-secured controls and privileges to the business class. Markets Not Capitalism explores the gap between radically freed markets and the capitalist-controlled markets that prevail today. It explains how liberating market exchange from state capitalist privilege can abolish structural poverty, help working people take control over the conditions of their labor, and redistribute wealth and social power. Featuring discussions of socialism, capitalism, markets, ownership, labor struggle, grassroots privatization, intellectual property, health care, racism, sexism, and environmental issues, this unique collection brings together classic essays by Cleyre, and such contemporary innovators as Kevin Carson and Roderick Long. It introduces an eye-opening approach to radical social thought, rooted equally in libertarian socialism and market anarchism. “We on the left need a good shake to get us thinking, and these arguments for market anarchism do the job in lively and thoughtful fashion.” – Alexander Cockburn, editor and publisher, Counterpunch “Anarchy is not chaos; nor is it violence. This rich and provocative gathering of essays by anarchists past and present imagines society unburdened by state, markets un-warped by capitalism.

  • Ancap Conversion Therapy
    AnCap Conversion Therapy By @ C ats A nd K alash Introduction This is a list of videos, essays, and books to introduce AnCaps and other Right-Libertarians to Left- Libertarianism. Not ALL opinions held by the listed authors and creators reflect my personal beliefs. My intention with this document is to provide enough introductory resources to dispel misconceptions Right- Libertarians may have about the left and allow them to see things from a more left-wing perspective. Yes the title is a little cheeky but it’s all in good fun. I ask any Right-Libertarians who come across this document view the listed content with an open mind. I think it’s important we all try to scrutinize our own beliefs and ask ourselves if our current positions are truly consistent with the values we hold, values of liberty, justice, etc. I also ask that you don’t watch just one video and come to a conclusion, this is a list for a reason. You don’t have to read/watch everything in one sitting, you can bookmark or download the list and come back to different parts of it later. What is Left-Libertarianism? “Left-Libertarianism” can be used to refer to different things, but in the context of this document it refers to a specific group of ideologies or tendencies which heavily revolve around Libertarian values and to varying extents, free markets. Mutualism, Individualist-Anarchism, and Agorism can all be considered “Left-Libertarian” tendencies. Some may also include Georgism and Left-Rothbardianism in that list as well.

  • AGORIST CLASS THEORY a Left Libertarian Approach to Class Conflict Analysis
    AGORIST CLASS THEORY A Left Libertarian Approach to Class Conflict Analysis By Wally Conger Drawing on the unfinished work of Samuel Edward Konkin III With a foreword by Brad Spangler AGORIST CLASS THEORY A Left Libertarian Approach to Class Conflict Analysis By Wally Conger Drawing on the unfinished work of Samuel Edward Konkin III with a foreword by Brad Spangler DEDICATION This work is dedicated to Sam, who got the ball rolling. Foreword The very term evokes mental imagery, and rightly so, of bloody tyrants and their apologists — from the killing fields of Cambodia to the massacre in the Katyn Forest, from statist dupes calling for more government power to "fight poverty" to Trotsky's bastard ideological grandchildren that are called "neo-conservatives." It has been a fig leaf for banditry and the ravening twin thirsts for power and blood. It has been the mantra of those who would conspire to realize Orwell's nightmare vision of a totalitarian boot forever stomping on a human face. I'm referring to the other war — the Class War. Marxist doctrine held, in a nutshell, that the relationship between the common people (the proletariat) and the elite (capitalists) was a continu- ation of the master and slave relationship of ancient times — and that any means, regardless of how ostensibly evil it may appear, was justifiable in addressing that iniquitous inequity. With the meltdown of nearly all avowedly Marxist states in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the notion of a Class Struggle was supposed to be consigned to the dustbin of history along with the rest of the smoke and mirrors of Marxist ideology.

  • Why I Won't Call Myself a Libertarian Anymore
    WWW.LIBERTYUNDERATTACK.COM Why I Won’t Call Myself a Libertarian Anymore By: Shane Radliff June 16th, 2016 Liberty Under Attack Photo Courtesy of "Words and Phrases from the Past" Early on in my anarchist days, I preferred to call myself a “libertarian”, since that was least offensive to those within the mainstream public. This then evolved into a term I heard Kyle Rearden use called “anti-political libertarian”, in order to distinguish between the anti-libertarian “Libertarian” Party gang, and libertarianism as consistently applied. That said, over the past few months I have noticed myself using that term less, and anarchist more. Now, I am dropping the label completely: the word “libertarian” has fallen prey to verbicide. Briefly defined, verbicide is “a deliberate distortion of the sense of a word.” Another example of this would be the word “gay”. Back in my grandparents’ days, “gay” simply meant “happy”, although now it primarily means “homosexual.” Let’s also take a look at a few varying definitions of “libertarianism.” Samuel Edward Konkin defined it as “free-market anarchism.” The “Libertarian” Party tends to define it as either “Minimum Government, Maximum Freedom”, or “socially liberal and fiscally conservative.” WWW.LIBERTYUNDERATTACK.COM L. Neil Smith provides a more eloquent definition: “A libertarian is a person who believes that no one has the right, under any circumstances, to initiate force against another human being, or to advocate or delegate its initiation. Those who act consistently with this principle are libertarians, whether they realize it or not. Those who fail to act consistently with it are not libertarians, regardless of what they may claim.” Konkin and Smith’s definition match how I understand it, as well.

  • Agorism.Info
    Agorist Class Theory Wally Conger based on the work of agorism.info Samuel Edward Konkin III Marxist Problem: The revolutionary class appears to work against its own interest; the proletariat support reactionary politicians. Agorist Solution: The Counter­Economic class cannot work against its interests as long as it is acting counter­economically. Those supporting statists politically have internal psychological problems without doubt, but as a class, these acts dampen the weakening of the State marginally. (Someone who earns $60,000 tax­free and contributes up to $3000 politically is a net revolutionary by several thousand dollars, several hundred percent!) The Failure of Marxism Marxist Problem: “Revolutionary” States keep “selling out” to reaction. Marxism is dead. This is acknowledged almost everywhere, with the exception of university campuses and among stodgy Old Agorist Solution: There are no such states. Resistance to all states at Leftists and uninformed media pundits. “The [Marxist] dream is all times is supported. dead,” wrote Samuel Edward Konkin III. “The institutions move on, decadent zombies, requiring dismemberment and burial. The ‘gravediggers of capitalism’ approach their own internment.” Marxist Problem: Revolutionary parties often betray the victimized class before taking power. Marxism failed on many fronts, perhaps on all fronts. Most fundamentally, though, its failure was economic. Marx’s “map of Agorist Solution: There are no such parties; resistance to all parties at reality” — his class theory — was fatally flawed, and economics all times is supported. was the measure by which his philosophy could be checked with reality. The failure of its economics led inevitably to Marxism’s failure to live up to its political and historical predictions.

  • I. Agorist Philosophy Origins
    I. Agorist Philosophy Origins Agorist [uh-gore-ist] philosophy finds its roots in the work of Samuel Edward Konkin III, a libertarian writer, publisher, and activist. Konkin published two books on the subject: “New Libertarian Manifesto” and “An Agorist Primer.” Unfortunately, Konkin passed away before he was able to finish his magnum opus, to be entitled “Counter-Economics,” and was also unable to complete his book on Agorist theory, which was simply to be called “Agorism.”1 His tireless work for the cause of liberty has served as an inspiration to the next generation of agorists, ones who look to emerging technologies and covert activities as a means of spreading and maintaining freedom in their communities. This book is intended to continue Konkin's work and highlight the advancements in agorism since his passing. The author can only hope that this work achieves a fraction of the success of the progenitor works in New Libertarian Manifesto and An Agorist Primer written by SEKIII. In “An Agorist Primer,” Samuel Edward Konkin III defined Agorism as: the consistent integration of libertarian theory with counter-economic practice; an agorist is one who acts consistently for freedom and in freedom.2 Libertarianism is defined as: the initiation of violence or the threat thereof (coercion) against a person or their justly acquired property is immoral and forbidden; nothing else is.3 The counter-economy is defined as: all (non-coercive) human action committed in defiance of the State. Counter-economics is the practice and study of counter-economic acts.4 With these definitions in mind, we can explore these topics in-depth.
