by Jacob Armstrong © 2012 The two largest problems in our society today are concentration of property, and the economic system that results from that: wage-slavery.

Is Cancer Merely a Vitamin Deficiency Disease?
by Joe Vialls, last edited in 2001 Though many alternative treatments for cancer have demonstrated success over the years, there has been too little discussion on possible ways of preventing or suppressing cancer before it has a chance to attack, or controlling it effectively after it strikes. There is also the question of why we [.. read more ..]

Permission Rackets and the Property Ponzi Scheme.
Going hungry and unsheltered is an unpleasant prospect; we all seek to avoid that situation.

Media for the State of Anarchy
As I have said before, the ever more sophisticated weapons piling up in the arsenals of the wealthiest and the mightiest can kill the illiterate, the ill, the poor and the hungry but they cannot kill ignorance, illnesses, poverty or hunger.— Fidel Castro
For the Anarchist, freedom is not an abstract philosophical concept, but the vital concrete possibility for every human being to bring to full development all capacities and talents with which nature has endowed him, and turn them to social account.— Rudolf Rocker
I define anarchist society as one where there is no legal possibility for coercive aggression against the person or property of any individual. Anarchists oppose the State because it has its very being in such aggression, namely, the expropriation of private property through taxation, the coercive exclusion of other providers of defense service from its territory, and all of the other depredations and coercions that are built upon these twin foci of invasions of individual rights.— Murray Rothbard
No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the greater part of the members are poor and miserable. It is but equity, besides, that they who feed, cloath and lodge the whole body of the people, should have such a share of the produce of their own labour as to be themselves tolerably well fed, cloathed and lodged.— Adam Smith
For industrial progress, as for each other conquest over nature, mutual aid and close intercourse certainly are, as they have been, much more advantageous than mutual struggle.— Peter Kropotkin
Wanton killing of innocent civilians is terrorism, not a war against terrorism.— Noam Chomsky
Whatever does not spring from a man's free choice, or is only the result of instruction and guidance, does not enter into his very being, but still remains alien to his true nature; he does not perform it with truly human energies, but merely with mechanical exactness.— Wilhelm von Humboldt
If I'd written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people - including me - would be rotting in prison cells from Rio to Seattle today. Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism.— Hunter S. Thompson
My political opinions lean more and more to anarchy (philosophically understood, meaning abolition of control not whiskered men with bombs) The most improper job of any man is bossing other men.— J R R Tolkein
States are violent institutions. The government of any country, including ours, represents some sort of domestic power structure, and it's usually violent. States are violent to the extent that they're powerful, that's roughly accurate.— Noam Chomsky
