This video is made of epic win.
Some samples would include the title: "We Don't Need No (Public) Education: Sheldon Richman on the Separation of School and State"
A bit in the beginning:  "It turns out children would be better off without be any education, than they would be with public schools."
Hence why I think the cost of government should be HIGHER than the accounting costs, AND why I think trying to take into account the "benefits" of government when calculating the cost is complete bullshit.
"When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world—'No. You move.'"
-Captain America, Amazing Spider-Man 537

"I have a gun. Break into my house and threaten my family and you'll find out just how much of a pacifist I am." --Lee Wrights
"When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world—'No. You move.'"

"The courts HATE jury nullification, because it means that just one person from the jury can decide that he doesn't like a law. They want to control the law and tell you what rules you should live by. I say TOUGH SHIT. Lets inform everyone about jury nullification to the point where the state becomes powerless to enforce anything, then we can create real, workable, polycentric law." --Fringeelements

Fringeelements may have a screw or two loose, but he does have his moments. :)

Another example of him being uncharacteristically lucid:

"This will be a video response to TheAzov; but before getting into it, I just want to say that I don't think people who aggressively advocate for state action are good people.  I really don't.  They're evil people and deserve the worst, and so I have no plans to be kind to them.  I have no plans to stop being 'a dick,' as some have said.  They want to throw me in a cage and probably get raped if I don't go along with their plan [and/or] pay for the things they want, and then say that this brutality is social.  When clearly it is the definition of anti-social.  So no chivalry.  These people want to enslave me, because in their narcissism, they think that they can centrally plan better than the grand nexus of interactions of society." --Fringeelements, this video: from 0:00 to 0:52
"When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world—'No. You move.'"

Replace the talk of religion with talk of statism.
Replace the talk of interpreting the bible with talk of interpreting the US Constitution.

Then watch the above video.

"It would've been more accurate had Keynes been killed in the ring, then had his corpse propped up and awarded the heavyweight belt by the members of congress." --FletchforFreedom, his thoughts on this video:  [yt]GTQnarzmTOc[/yt]

Fav quotes from the video itself:

"Creating employment's a straightforward craft / When the nation's at war, and there's a draft / If every worker was staffed in the army and fleet / We'd have full employment—and nothing to eat!"

"The economy's not a car, there's no engine to stall / No expert can fix it, there's no "it" at all / The economy's us, we don't need a mechanic / Put away the wrenches, the economy's organic"

"People aren't chessmen you move on a board / At your whim—their dreams and desires ignored"

It should go without saying that the video (in particular, F.A. Hayek's lyrics), are also a fav quote.

On Jacob Spinney's video response to TheAmazingAtheist's latest video on Ron Paul, I posted a comment saying that I've never seen Stargazer5781 get that irate at a YouTube video before.
Here is SG's response to me:
Quote from: Stargazer5781@vspqbd I did get pretty pissed while I was watching TJ's video, but TJ was sort of the straw that broke the camel's back in a long series of progressives I've been encountering who absolutely refuse to criticize Obama's violent imperialistic policies, or at best say they're "disappointed." Apparently they love the poor so much that blowing up brown children overseas is ok as long as it's not done by a Republican. To ignore murder and make up stories about church and state infuriated me.

"See this is what annoys me about you new atheists.  The vast majority of you support an authoritarian, paternalist, nanny state and yet you bitch and complain that your rights are being violated because there's a nativity scene in a public park come Christmas time" --Raymond Dundas, transcribed by Lord T Hawkeye

"- Mewling about 'freedom of speech' will prompt me to introduce you to its twin brother, 'freedom of association'. In other words, you will be banned." --Guncriminal's 4th channel rule

Honestly, I will never understand how people like kDest (and other statist wankers) consider non-violent social ostracism (i.e. blocking on youtube or banning them from a forum) to be a "violation of the principles of libertarianism."
