Telling Other People How To Live

The state has quite rightly been described as one of the most destructive institutions that human beings have ever conjured.

It has enabled the masses for years to be able to squabble over their disagreements on how they should tell other people to live their lives. It's hard to put into the words the scale of damage that has been inflicted upon humanity by the state; an incredible amount of unjust violence that's been initiated upon peaceful people over the centuries.

Trying to tell other people how to live their life, and punishing them when they go against your decrees, is a tricky and costly business.

And criticizing this manner of organization alone doesn't mean that you are also criticizing rules in general, or the act of organization itself.

It could simply be that you prefer an order of organization that is founded upon and respects individual consent.

The notion that governments strive to promote our best interest could be described as little more than propaganda.

The system that we are used to dealing with is one that is instead founded upon coercion, not voluntary exchange or voluntary consent, it is a system of intervention that is afforded a privileged monopoly that infringes upon the natural rights of millions.

A system which violates the rights of the smallest minority, the individual, cannot be one that has been established to promote the best interest of that individual.

Interventionism negates peaceful trade and it undermines individual liberty. Both sides of the farcical political spectrum want to intervene in the lives of others, for one reason or another. The ongoing circus fuels arbitrary abuse of authority and erodes liberty for all.

A free society is not one that's founded upon interventionism.

It is within your own best interest to support the freedom of others, even if you don't agree with what they are doing and how they are using that freedom. Because when you support the freedom of others, you in-return promote your own.

Under the current system today, the individual is threatened with harm whenever they fail to comply with whatever arbitrary edicts have been established. Does this sound like safety? Is this what freedom really looks like?

Society would be much more peaceful and flourishing if more people would opt to refrain from supporting a corrupt and counterproductive system of intervention that seeks to violate the natural rights of all and endlessly infringe upon various social arrangements.
