These thing are becoming easier to articulate.

Even though I took some introductory courses in economics in college, it was always boring to me, also, other than the very basic stuff like supply & demand and the law of diminishing returns, I didn’t really understand it. I was originally drawn to Ron Paul’s campaign because of his opposition to the war and his unwavering defense of civil liberties. His economic stuff was just more blah, blah, blah, until he started getting through to me with the idea that economics and monetary policy are fundamental to understanding both domestic and foreign policy and the political structures and processes at play in this country and around the world. Talking about those things without talking about economics is like trying to talk about music while ignoring the concept of rhythm; like trying to understand Magick without knowledge of Qabalah.

I’ve actually been aware of him for several years, and it has been an amazing education for me. Regardless of the outcome of this election–and between you, me and the Internet, I am less confident about that than I was six months ago–there are now thousands, if not millions, of people like me who are waking up to the principle of spontaneous order and the emergent properties of a free society. He has let the genie out of the bottle and it is not going back in.

Stop it before it starts

Please, do not allow George Bush
(or Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama or John McCain or Rudy Giuliani)
to kill this green and pleasant land

Or these lovely children

Or these beautiful women

Or these devout Jews

Or these faithful Christians

Or these bowlers

Or these skiers

Or any of these peaceful people

Don’t believe the lies.

Don’t Iraqify Iran
