Politics is a dirty business, a ruse, an ideological cul-de-sac, a vast looter of intellectual and financial resources, a lie that corrupts, a deceiver, a means of unleashing vast evil in the world of the most unexpected and undetected sort and the greatest diverter of human productivity ever concocted by those who do not believe in authentic social and economic progress.
Jeffrey TuckerSomeone asked me the other day if I believe in conspiracies. Well, sure. Here's one. It is called the political system. It is nothing if not a giant conspiracy to rob, trick and subjugate the population.
Jeffrey TuckerThe goal of intellectual life should be to see and understand what is true, not merely to adhere to a prevailing orthodoxy.
Jeffrey TuckerLiberty is not about class war, income war, race war, national war, a war between the sexes, or any other conflict apart from the core conflict between individuals and those who would seek power and control over the human spirit. Liberty is the dream that we can all work together, in ways of our choosing and of our own human volition, to realize a better life.
Jeffrey TuckerWe really donโt get all the government we pay for, and thank goodness. Lord protect us on the day that we do.
Jeffrey TuckerAnarchy is all around us. Without it, our world would fall apart. All progress is due to it. All order extends from it. All blessed things that rise above the state of nature are owned to it. The human race thrives only because of the lack of control, not because of it. Iโm saying that we need ever more absence of control to make the world a more beautiful place. It is a paradox that we must forever explain.
