    The Idiocy of Politics

    Don't hold your breath on Stewart. I'm a fan of both him and Colbert, but they're clearly both worshipers of the state. Have you seen Stewart's new set? Stewart barely ever invites even mainstream libertarians onto his show, let alone Stefan Molyneux.

    First time investor

    I'm nearly 21 years old with some savings to invest. Various people on this site have recommended Roth IRAs to young people. Why is a Roth IRA better than a standard brokerage account? If I open a Roth, don't I have to wait until I'm 59.5 until I can reap my tax-free earnings? Isn't the...

    Murphy Vs. Krugman Debate. - Campaign Started

    No, but if this gets big enough (and we spread it around on his blog and pro-Krugman places), it will attract his supporters and lead them to question why he won't debate a man they perceive to be an ignorant crackpot for charity. Surely their heroic Nobel laureate can debate a fool for an hour...

    Do precious metals dealers report our transactions?

    Could you elaborate? Say I wanted to purchase some gold coins from APMEX with a credit card. Would that transaction be reported to anyone?

    Do precious metals dealers report our transactions?

    Does anyone know if online coin and bullion companies such as APMEX, MONEX, EuroPac Precious Metals, etc. are required to report their customers' transactions to any government agency, or any of the other "bad guys?" Please provide any details you may know. I've heard that some new regulations...

    Keynesian: Booming Chinese Village a Sign of Coming Chinese Collapse

    Facts aren't your forte, are they? Look up private networks and proxies, and then get back to me.

    Keynesian: Booming Chinese Village a Sign of Coming Chinese Collapse

    Equating Mao with Hitler and Stalin is a purely Western conception. Most Chinese see Mao as a great liberator, the man who released the Chinese from millennia of despotism under autocratic emperors. IMO, it would be wrong to equate adoration of Mao with adoration of statism. Them loving Mao...

    Keynesian: Booming Chinese Village a Sign of Coming Chinese Collapse

    Umm, I call bullshit. You obviously have no idea of what you speak. Millions of Chinese use proxies and private networks to access "illegal" information, just as you would if the US Empire started censoring the internet. Enforcing the Golden Shield laws are extremely difficult, especially given...

    Has Anyone Seen Collision?

    Very good film. Hitchens was fantastic as usual, and I have to say I even liked Wilson. His arguments were the most compelling I've ever heard out of a Christian, even if they were totally wrong.

    Clip From Freedom Watch: Ron Paul on the Plausibility of HR1207

    I am reviving this thread simply to point out that all those State-enthusiast pseudo-libertarians who denounced me within this discussion were, of course, astonishingly wrong. http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/041631.html Ron Paul was also correct in his expectation that his bill...
