According to recent polling, the Pirate Party, which stands for internet and financial freedom rose to fame employing swarm activism tactics, ranks as high as 22.5%.

You know, doing this daily is not easy, I commend you.

You are one of the few people who can speak with authority on this :). Beyond the actual work, the hardest part I have found is perfectionism slows me down. I really do appreciate your support.

Your daily episodes are very well done. Very meaningful and I learn something new everyday. Thank you for doing this.

So glad to see DASH in your video! Also, I think I'm moving to Iceland. :)

I believe the Pirate Party not seeking PM post is their way of:

  1. seeking a larger coalition partner whom will agree to their platform in exchange for PM post and,

  2. showing to the electorate that they want to enact their goals on principal, and not just gain power.

Enjoy the podcast .. this one is particularly hopeful. But I do wonder why you felt the need to comment on Snowden's "guilt or innocence"? If there are any among this particular crowd who believe he should face sentencing in the USA, I would volunteer to slap their silly-asses even sillier.

Go Pirate Party! Asylum for Snowden in Iceland would be happy news indeed - because his days are numbered in Russia.

Interesting, for a population so small, yet libertarian, we could see a huge shift towards a better economy.

It is enough if crypto gets to 1 country and finds a stronghold there, it will spread from there as others will realize soon it's benefits. Yeah we need more practical uses not just theories.
