Replying to nobody

As promised, great quotes from Murray Rothbard:

“If a man has the right to self-ownership, to the control of his life, then in the real world he must also have the right to sustain his life.”

“The essential activities of the State necessarily constitute criminal aggression and depredation of the just rights of private property of its subjects (including self-ownership).”

“The State is an inherently illegitimate institution of organized aggression, of organized and regularized crime against the persons and properties of its subjects… a profoundly antisocial institution which lives parasitically off of the productive activities of private citizens.”

“We must, therefore, emphasize that ‘we’ are not the government; the government is not ‘us.’ The government does not in any accurate sense ‘represent’ the majority of the people.”

“The State is a coercive criminal organization that subsists by a regularized large-scale system of taxation-theft.”

This is such a powerful quote from Rothbard. 🙏

'The belief in authority is the most dangerous superstition'. ... To paraphrase Larkin Rose.
