Today, nobody sees, or wishes to see, that in our time the enslavement of the majority of men is based on money taxes, levied on land and otherwise, which are collected by government from the subjects. »» Leo Tolstoy

Philaahzophy Posts On "Applied Anarchy"-

Subcategories: |

This series is essentially a response to all of the anarchists, agorists, libertarians and general freedom lovers who are wondering what they, themselves, can do right now to step closer to a life of genuine freedom. These posts are the ones where we step away from anarchist theory and towards anarchy in practice.

How The Market Can Enforce Intellectual Property

Part of the Applied Anarchy 2008 Series - Previous in series

Although I was aware of Napster, Kazaa, LimeWire and other second-generation file sharing systems I was never much of a fan. It’s not that I had a problem “giving back” to the “community”, but rather I really didn’t like the security holes that ran rampant with them all. The idea of opening my computer to anyone with a modicum of knowledge just didn’t sit right with me. …

…to be politicians.
While checking out the new Salvation Army Store in Gilroy (one of the few ways to avoid sales tax) last weekend I came across a mint condition copy of Dr. Fred Schwarz’ You Can Trust the Communists (to be Communists, originally published in 1960). The paperback copy I picked up was printed in 1972, but looks like it just came off the press this…

It was recently brought to my attention that though I frequently refer to taxes being “stolen money” and being collected “at the point of a gun” I’ve never really explained that reality. My assumption was that this was as self-evident to others as it has always been to myself, but apparently it’s not so self-evident after all. So here you go…

There’s a good portion of anarchists, agorists, libertarians, rebels, and general freedom lovers who believe that voting is not only pointless, but also immoral, unethical, or even anti-thetical to a belief in freedom. The argument generally goes something along the lines of voting “participating in” or “supporting” the corrupt government system.

This post is simply a bookmark of sorts. My Applied Anarchy Series was merely getting too large for listing in each post, so I’ve decided to split the series into sections with an index of sorts to the previous section being the first post of the new section.

So, here are the links to every Applied Anarchy post in 2007-

In the process of implementing the newly installed In Series Wordpress plugin here at Philaahzophy I realized that not only do I already have a dozen entries in my Applied Anarchy series, but I never really explained what the label itself means. This series is essentially a response to all of the anarchists, agorists, libertarians and general freedom lovers who are wondering what they, themselves, can do right now to…
