How To Abolish Government

http://www.lewrockwell.com/edmonds/edmonds163.html

"Even if you dislike the idea of participating with your forcible government, it remains the case that telling your governor not to put a new tax up for vote is a step in the right direction. He doesn’t need to know you’re moving him in the direction of abolishing his office, that you didn’t vote for him, or that you don’t vote for people at all. He needs to believe only that you might vote for him next time. Forty years from now, it will be easier to abolish a government that taxes 10% of your income and offers no social programs than to abolish a government of the sort we have today."
Brad Edmonds

An excellent short essay which explains in simple terms, what ordinary freedom lovers can do TODAY in their fight against the State.

I don't buy it. Here's why:

I doubt you'll find enough people to want to shuck such a small yoke.

And how would you see such a small government? Only an 'in your face' gummint will be done away with, seems to me.

I'm for bigger gummint til everyone's pissed off as I think that's the only one that will be dumped...permanently.

Great point! Sadly, you are probably correct. My question is, assuming you are correct, How damn big does govco have to grow?

My point in linking to this essay is my desire to unite classical liberals, minarchists and anarchists against the state.

Fight Statism Any Peaceful Way You Can!
