LIBERTY AS AN ARISTOCRACY OF EVERYBODY, OR JUST FOR THOSE WHO CHOOSE LIBERTY?
It’s kind of admirable that the british enlightenment felt that they could create an aristocracy of everybody. And, given british power and circumstance, it’s possibly understandable how such an ambition could be honestly thought, and more than ideological marketing to the rapidly expanding colonials and bureaucrats, and motivation for the labor force. With such wealthy of course, it seemed at least plausible that the trend would continue forever.
But really. It was just marketing.
Good marketing.
But just marketing.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BUY A WHOLE COUNTRY?
“Dec. 6, 10 p.m. Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, meeting today in Sochi with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, signed an agreement stating that Ukraine will join the Kremlin-led Customs Union, according to Edward Lucas, senior editor at The Economist, citing his own sources.
The Kyiv Post could not independently confirm the news. Kremlin official contacted by Kyiv Post also did not confirm the news and said only to look for statements on the Kremlin’s official website. As of 10:45 a.m. on Dec. 7, the only statement posted to the site confirmed a visit by Yanukovych to Sochi.
“Wow! Hearing Yanukovich in Sochi today signed strategic agrt w Russia includes $5BN+ up front, gas price $200 + agrt to join customs union,” Lucas wrote on Twitter.
The details of the agreement, which reportedly include billions up front for the country, as well as a huge price cut on gas, are being hammered out in Moscow, Lucas wrote.”

LIBERTARIAN OR ARISTOCRATIC EGALITARIAN?
If calling one’s self a libertarian means that one hopes to enfranchise others in the love of liberty then that is a fools game. The only difference between aristocratic egalitarianism and libertarianism, is that AE uses force to obtain liberty and suppresses the evolution of the state. while we libertarians appeal to reason like a beggar for alms.

No dollar, no debt financing. No financing, no Military. No military, no empire. No empire, no international trade discount. No discount then everything in the entire western hemisphere will become dramatically more expensive. No social programs, no state as insurer of last resort.

All the amazing nonsense I’ve been lucky to see in my lifetime.
The only thing I want to see now, is the failure of the EU project, and the dissolution of the united states federal government, and a return of power to the states.
I’ll trust science to accomplish the rest.

A people must consist as an extended, outbred family. The philosophy (religion) of these people must be fairly homogenous. The men must be armed such that the government must fear the people. The source of freedom is not democracy, it is the militia. Democracy is precisely the opposite of freedom. It is incompatible with freedom. Democracy is a means of enacting free riding and rent seeking.
