Austrian Economics. A fringe academic view which is greatly preferred by many libertarians on ideological grounds. https://theworld.com/~mhuben/libindex.html Freedom Through Technology. Cypherpunks, high-tech libertarians, and various others mistakenly think technology will eliminate the need for government (if not outright eliminate government.) Assassination Politics Convicted tax evader Jim Bell proposes a system of anonymous ecash awards for the murder of "aggressors", such as IRS agents. See also Crypto-Convict Won't Recant. What he misses is that his system, if tolerated, would merely force government to operate secretly rather than openly. <<< Reposts eyes only

Three recommendations for my peers about learning to live with terrible advice Creating “Deadpools” to ice out wannabe regulators especially the POTUS Setting an industry standard to pay assassins to kill anti-social hackers like Assmange and Ulbricht - a de facto “bug bounty” Ensuring dollar-pegged SHITCOINS are treated like US Dollars (or federal government issued treasury notes/bills) and removed from circulation quickly by any means necessary.

" . . . the most anti-cyberpunk sci-fi franchise of all time has gone cyberpunk. Even the opening scene of the latest Star Wars series, Andor, finds its eponymous hero Cassian (Diego Luna) in what appears to be an utterly cyberpunk setting. With its low-fi obsession with data tracking and analog tech in a dirty futuristic setting, Andor is the closest thing Star Wars has ever had to cyberpunk, and the franchise is better for it. . .
