As a anarchist myself I like his suggestions but on a practical level he may as well of just said, end the the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, and then abolish the federal government. I think articles like this are interesting but are not motivating because they are rooted in pragmatic strategy. Keep trying though…

Comment on U.K. Ambassador: Renditioned Detainees ‘Raped With Broken Bottles’ in ‘Soviet-Style Gulags’ by despicable

The “American Economy,” is no longer small individual enterprises of rugged individualists competing to become bigger than they were!
To survive and compete in todays global market, you have to lose your individualist identity, and become a part of a large conglomerate, a Global Multi National Corpotation. You have to become a part of a global enterprise that is larger and more powerful than most governments, in order to be a player in the world of “Free Enterprise!”
You can believe that you are a small businessman opperating a small business and that you and your kind are the foundation that makes America great. You can believe that, and the world will continue to laugh at you. You Libertarians are lost inside the no longer existing past! Wake up and face our present day global reality.
Every educated person knows, or should know, that everything on the planet is structured to evolve so as to survive inside a changing environment. If anything or anyone does not or cannot make a necessary adjustment to a changing environment, that what exists will no longer be able to exist into the future!
Capitalism has grown into the stage of “Globalism,” because it is the only way that capitalism can evolve and grow, and not die and not realize it’s full potential.
Capitalisim cannot move back into the way it was during the early history of America, just like a old man cannot recapture his youth.
If you allow yourself to view the world scientificaly, you cannot help but come to the conclusion that the only possible alternative to a Free Market Economy is a Controled Market Economy, and the only possible alternative to a “World Controled Market Economy is a “World Planned Market Economy” that is designed to profit the entire planet without discrimination!
