Even if somehow waging violent coups and regime change wars across the planet could guarantee freedom for those people, it would necessarily come at the expense of those whose lives and liberty our government is actually sworn to protect: ours. —Scott Horton
The terrifying thing is the less likely someone is to point Ukraine on the map the more likely it is that they want their country to go to war. They have no idea of any of the history. They look at it from a cartoonish worldview. —Lauren Southern, “Your Welcome” with Michael Malice #198
It isn’t a coincidence that governments everywhere want to educate children. If the government’s propaganda can take root as children grow up, those kids will be no threat to the state apparatus — they’ll fasten the chains to their own ankles. —Lew Rockwell

If some men are entitled by right to the products of the work of others, it means that those others are deprived of rights and condemned to slave labor. No man can have a right to impose an unchosen obligation, an unrewarded duty, or an involuntary servitude on another man. There can be no such thing as “the right to enslave” —Ayn Rand
The rights of one man cannot and must not violate the rights of another. For instance: a man has the right to live, but he has no right to take the life of another. He has the right to be free, but no right to enslave another.

I viewed the marketplace as a cruel place, where you need intervention by government to protect people. But after watching the regulators work, I have come to believe that markets are magical, and the best protectors of the consumer. It is my job to explain the beauties of the free market. —John Stossel
The worst thing that can happen to a socialist is to have his country ruled by socialists who are not his friends. —Ludwig von Mises
