Free Minds TV travels to Grafton NH for Burning Porcupine, events included both a Libertarian picnic, as well as a funeral for Bob Barr and the Libertarian Party. Also, asset forfeiture and Downsize DC, and the nanny state in Europe; brooms deemed too dangerous for carpenters.
What is the nature of this organization of people calling themselves the “government”? Is it based in consent, as their own founding documents claim? Or are they actually a group of men and women doing business by the threat of violence? The latter is what most of the people I associate with believe, but which is the truth? Earlier this year, I ventured into a similar area when I questioned the government people over a parking ticket. You can read parts one and two of that here. (Eventually, I will write a part three when time permits!)
So, now we begin a new saga into the world of “property taxes”.
If you’re like me, paying property taxes is a painful experience. (Read on …)

Fred Parsells had me in on this morning’s “Talkback” for the entire two hours on WKBK. In hour two, Lt. Shane Maxfield from the Keene Police Department joined the conversation in-studio. We discussed the Free State Project, Libertarianism, regulations, representation, the pledge of allegiance, government education, Copwatch, monopolies, the roads, gambling civil disobedience, and market protection services.
I’m a bit of a videophile, so when I found out YouTube now supports higher quality videos, I had to re-upload some of my recent productions. Much to my surprise, not only are the videos now in higher resolution and bandwidth, but they are also staying in the widescreen format! (If you watch in full screen mode on a widescreen monitor).
I cannot embed them in high resolution, so please click the links and then watch in full screen to see these more as the director (me) intended:
Thanks for watching!
The Free Minds TV Hiatus Episode. Toby and Nick talk about an old man involved in a illegal taxi sting for giving a woman a ride home from the grocery store before getting into this week’s Downsizer Dispatch. Also, old gas pumps can’t handle rising prices, why the government can’t fix the fuel crises, and no knock raids.
The Libertarian Party (LP) had, after the late, great Harry Browne’s campaigns, been falling further and further from it’s original principles. In the early portion of this decade, when the LP removed from the party platform their calls for the abolishment of the CIA and FBI, I wrote their newspaper to say I’d not send them another dime of money until they got back to their founding principle: the non-initiation of force.
As I drifted away from the LP and politics and toward market-based action, I paid less and less attention to the LP. I even said on the air recently on “Free Talk Live“, my talk show, that the only reason I was still a member is because I bought a life membership and it hadn’t been worth my while to cancel it.
