In World War II, Japanese-Americans were confined in concentrations camps illegally, while the homes and farms they'd labored all their lives to build were stolen from them by neighbors or local governments, often never to be returned.

The War on Drugs employs millions - politicians, bureaucrats, policemen, and now the military - that probably couldn't find a place for their dubious talents in a free market, unless they were to sell pencils from a tin cup on street corners.

Violent crime is a solved problem - all they have to do is repeal the laws that keep those intelligent, capable, and responsible men and women from arming themselves, and violent crime evaporates like dry ice on a hot summer day.

The main problem is that for a boycott to be effective, you must first persuade thousands - maybe even millions of others - to go along, which is a lot of work and usually not successful.

To start with, no policemen should be permitted to carry or use any weapon forbidden to civilians in his jurisdiction.

The claim that the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were attacked because fundamentalists hate our prosperity and freedom is a ridiculous lie.

Poverty is a solved problem - all they have to do is abolish taxes and regulations which cripple those intelligent, capable, and responsible men and women and destroy their productive capacity, then stand back and watch the economy boom.

Today, human civilization is drowning in a sea of lies.

I'll remind you all, however, that for government, existence is a privilege, not a right.

This planet is 15 million years overdue for an asteroid strike like the one that killed the dinosaurs.

I'm as radical as libertarians come.

I'm tired of being considered some kind of criminal or dangerous throwback for no other reason than that I value, exercise, and defend my rights under the first ten Amendments to the United States Constitution.

I'm tired of living with a government that terrorizes, bullies, beats up, tortures, and kills more and more individuals every day, here and abroad, and does it in my name, and at my involuntary expense.

I'm tired of being lied to by government, by the media, and by every corporation I have anything to do with.

That simple truth is that a libertarian presidential candidate isn't going to win anyway, not in 2004, not in 2008, not in 2012.

The fact is that surveys which media people openly admit to show that fewer than twelve percent of their customers believe they're doing a good job, while the average profit margin in television is in the neighborhood of eighty percent.

The first thing you need to know, in order to establish some perspective and avoid panic, is that the violent government excesses we're seeing today are far from unprecedented.

Like the government, corporations must be bound with the chains of the Constitution, and especially of the Bill of Rights.

City governments ought to be abolished, if only as a public health measure.

It is those who would lead us - whether we want to be led or not - and their policies that have brought all of it close to ruin.
