1388: Jeff Deist – Personal Secession from the State

All of us can play a role in a bottom-up revolution by doing everything in our power to withdraw our consent from the state. —Jeff Deist

Secede from intellectual isolation. Talk to friends, family, and neighbors to spread liberty.
Secede from dependency. Become self-sufficient with regards to food, water, fuel, cash, firearms, and physical security.
Secede from mainstream media. Ditch cable, ditch CNN, and ditch the major newspapers.
Secede from state control of your children by homeschooling or unschooling them.
Secede from college by rejecting mainstream academia and its student loan trap.
Secede from the US dollar by owning physical precious metals, by owning assets denominated in foreign currencies, and by owning assets abroad.
Secede from the federal tax and regulatory regimes. Be as tax efficient as possible.
Secede from the legal system by legally protecting your assets from probate courts.
Secede from the state healthcare racket by taking control of your health, and questioning medical orthodoxy.
Secede from your state by moving to another with a better tax and regulatory environment.
Secede from political uncertainly in the US by obtaining a second passport; or secede from the US altogether by expatriating.
Most of all, secede from the mindset that government is all-powerful or too formidable an opponent to be overcome.

All of us can play a role in a bottom-up revolution by doing everything in our power to withdraw our consent from the state. —Jeff Deist

1313: Karl Hess – The Radical Position is a Lonely One

W1312: Karl Hess – As Governments Fail — As governments fail around the world, as more millions become aware that government never has and never can humanely and effectively manage men's affairs, government's own inadequacy will emerge, at last, as the basis for a truly radical and revolutionary movement. —Karl Hess

The radical-revolutionary position is a lonely one. It is feared and hated, by both Right and Left — although both Right and Left must borrow from it to survive. The radical-revolutionary position is libertarianism, and its socioeconomic form is laissez-faire capitalism. —Karl Hess

1307: Karl Hess – Radical and Revolutionary Movements

Both Left and Right are reactionary and authoritarian. That is to say, both are political. They seek only to revise current methods of acquiring and wielding political power. Radical and revolutionary movements seek not to revise but to revoke. The target of revocation should be obvious. The target is politics itself. —Karl Hess (The Death of Politics)
