Liberty is not a battle that requires the conversion of others in order to win.
Liberty is won when you accept the fact that you own yourself, that you have individual rights, and that no one has the right to violate your rights.
When you accept that you are liberated.
Stefan Molyneux - An Urgent Christmas Message
REVIEW OF THE VIDEO:
The number of parasites in society is out numbering the productive people. People need to speak up now before it is too late. Our deficit which is a form of theft is now in the trillions. It better to try and talk about it now and do something now before the system collapses. It will be much harder to fix things once the system has collapsed. It is better to fight with words now then to end up fighting with guns later.
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS:
Individual rights are rights your born with and no one can legally take away from you.
The right to liberty - The right to do whatever you want as long as your not violating the rights of others.
The right to self-defense - The right to defend yourself, your property, and your rights.
The right to own and carry weapons - so your able to defend yourself, your property, and your rights.
The right to self-ownership - We own ourselves. No one can claim even partial ownership over you without violating your rights.
The right to free speech - The right to communicate your opinions and ideas without fear of government retaliation or censorship.
The right to privacy - No one has the right to violate your privacy.
Any law that violates your rights is null and void. Anyone that violates your rights is a criminal.
PRINCIPLES OF FREEDOM:
All people are free, created equal, and have individual rights.
We never have an obligation to let anyone commit aggression against us. No one has the right to harm you, steal from you, threaten you, or violate your rights.
We have the right to seek leaders for ourselves but we have no right to force rulers on others.
All interactions between people should be voluntary and free of force, fraud, and threats.
THE FREEDOM SOLUTION:
There are two kinds of people. People who prefer big government (statists) and people who prefer freedom.
Statists want government to have a great deal of power over the economy and individual behavior.
People who prefer freedom, want to have a great deal of control over there own lives.
Most people who prefer big government won't change there mind. Most people who prefer freedom won't change there mind. So instead of trying to convert the other side. We should just let each group live the way they want too.
If your a person who prefers statism then you can have all the government you want, as long as you do not violate the rights of others.
If your a person who prefers freedom then you can have all the freedom you want, as long as you do not violate the rights of others.
Freedom means that people get to decide for themselves how they want to live.
