I've been reading up on Austrian Economics and a little of the Political Philosophy of Anarchism/Minarchism. But what I would like to do now is to start books/lists/references based upon Government and the actions it has done perpetrated against the citizenry. Or programs that start out with different intentions as compared to the benevolent image we place on them. I need some examples to discuss with friends so that they can get out of the mindset that government is looking out for us.
