Prepare yourself for President Trump

And make peace with the fact that liberty will not be restored through Presidential campaigns.  Focus all your energy on restoring liberty in your hometown and home state and ignore the siren calls of the DC libertarians, who are living it up and being completely ineffective.  If liberty is restored in your home state, its effects will ripple outward.  There’s no better front to fight on for liberty.

The Political Class loves for libertarians to buy a suit and migrate to DC, because they know that it will sterilize them of whatever effectiveness they previously had.

The US will never leave Iraq

Pentagon wants to expand role in Iraq to thwart ISIS, a direct product of misguided US intervention in that country in the first place.  Here’s an idea: ignore ISIS completely.  Stop treating them as an actual threat to Americans and let them fizzle out.  Unfortunately, they’re the latest excuse for the War on Terror nonsense to continue apace.

Cash is anonymous, which is why government hates it

Privacy from government is essential for a free society to flourish, that’s why government attempts to thwart and diminish it at every turn.  Privacy=terrorism has been the chief talking point for awhile now from the political class, to shame us all into relinquishing our privacy and ushering in total surveillance.  Hence the war on cash, the war on encryption, etc.  They want to surveil every breath you take, every transaction you make, and everything that gets in the way of that will be branded as terrorism.

More on cash and liberty from Glenn Reynolds, the Instapundit, who has an article in USA Today entitled, “Cash is the currency of freedom”, in which he discusses the push to abolish the $100 bill by former Treasury secretary Larry Summers.
