Freedomain Radio -- #1335 Sunday Show April 19 2009 - 00:49:00 Virtue Is A Relationship
"Virtue is a relationship. And it is a relationship where both parties need to bring value to the table – like any economic relationship. If there are rules, so to speak, like UPB ... we are not authentic if we are following rules – even if those rules are rational – we are not authentic if we are following them because they are rules ... The rules have to be alive, the rules have to be sensitive, the rules have to be reciprocal, the rules have to be relational. People will constantly try to put hooks in you based on their perception that you will obey abstract rules in a vacuum – despite what they, no matter what they do. Rules bow to evidence. Empiricism trumps abstractions every time. That's why people's behaviour matters a lot more than what they say. It's the constant reciprocity of how other people are treating you that is the challenge of ethics. How is the other person treating me now? How is the other person treating me now? How is the other person treating me now?"

'The statistics, sociology, police brutality, massive food price increases and economic catastrophes behind the recent and continuing riots in Britain.' -- "A culture that is undermined and dissolved slowly through government regulations, through the tax incentives to bear children and live apart – results in young men and young women growing up without father figures, often in households where they have never seen anyone work." -- Pointing finger is pointing at government.

Freedomain Radio -- #1955 Sunday Show 17 July 2011 - On Politics (MP3)
"Politics is all about getting unmet needs met through the state. And the unmet needs are childhood needs. What people are really trying to do when they want political solutions is they are trying to avoid the pain of dealing with what was missing in their childhoods."

YouTube -- RT: The Bohemian Grove Exposed: Stefan Molyneux of Freedomain Radio on Television!
"[Moloch] demands child sacrifice; The State requires child sacrifice: it requires that children be placed in terrible schools for the sake of buying votes from teachers; it requires that children's futures be sold off for the sake of buying favors from voters in the here-and-now; and it demands that governments periodically go to war, which is the ultimate form of child sacrifice."

YouTube -- Freedomain Radio: Helping the Poor: Analyzing a Banana Republic
'How to help the poor without pointing the gun at everyone else.' -- "If a majority of people want to do something, compelling them to do it is not rational." -- And if a majority of people don't believe that other people want to do it or if people don't want to do it themselves – and if people still want to claim the virtue of doing it and want to avoid the anxiety that follows from not doing it and want to avoid the anxiety of having relationships with people they don't believe want to do it – they will eagerly submit to a group of people with guns who will force everyone to talk about how much they're doing it, precisely because everyone knows they aren't.

YouTube -- Freedomain Radio: True News: Vancouver Riots, Greek Austerity & Bitcoin Thefts
"Democracy is a system of bribery. And the only way a system of bribery of the general population can work – here's something for nothing, here's 'free' schools, here's 'free' health-care, here's 'free' pensions, here's 'free' roads – the only way that this can ever work is through debt. The only way that democracy can remotely appear to function is through debt. Democracy is debt. Democracy is predation on the unborn and the non-voting. It is the lending of the bankers on the future collateral of the unborn that allows for the existing population to be bribed in a democracy. Of course the government is going to do what the bankers want because without the bankers lending them money they can't bribe the population in order to get into power. Democracy is bribery; bribery is borrowing; borrowing is debt. When you have a system that is based on borrowing and debt, the bankers are going to end up in control of the system. The problem is democracy. The problem is the state."

Freedomain Radio -- #1095 Kidnapped - A Listener Convo (MP3)
'Shrugging off the burdens of your history...' -- "Our tendency when we're abused is to look at it as though it's personal: *I* was abused. But the fundamental thing about abuse is that it is anti-empathetic. You cannot abuse someone that you are empathizing with. ...abuse is never, ever, personal. It has nothing to do with *us* as individuals. Once we detach the personal from [abuse] there's a certain amount of relief because what we're describing is an unhappy accident. [Personalization] is what children cling to because if it's not personal then we're completely invisible – and children can't psychologically survive that. ...it seems like a universal survival tactic of children is to take it personally; it's the only way to create a bond when you're being [abused]. The defense mechanism that kicks in is: if I can take it personally, I can pretend to have control. We take it personally as a way of avoiding hopelessness, helplessness and catastrophic depression... "

Wikipedia -- Stefan Molyneux
“In order to have thoughts of kindness for the suffering of others, you have to have accepted your own suffering. In order to have empathy for others, we have to have empathy for ourselves. Because if we are avoiding our own suffering or the suffering we have experienced, then we will inevitably avoid the suffering of others. That which we reject in ourselves we inevitably reject in others.”May 28 2011
YouTube -- Stefan Molyneux of Freedomain Radio on the Max Keiser TV Show!
'A tour through historical and contemporary economic issues through the lens of rational philosophy.' -- "There are two ways that societies or individuals change: They have an intellectual or moral or philosophical enlightenment where they rise above the everyday moments of their disasters and look at the big picture. The other is that they simply hit a wall..."

Freedomain: The Logic of Personal and Political Freedom -- The Gun in the Room
'One of the most difficult – and essential – challenges faced by libertarians is the constant need to point out “the gun in the room.” We hear nonstop nonsense about the “social good,” the “redistribution of income,” the “education of children” and so on – endless attempts to bury the naked barrel of the state in a mountain of syrupy metaphors. In more than 20 years of debating these issues, though, I’ve never met a single soul who wants to either shoot me himself or have someone else shoot me. I take enormous solace in this fact, because it explains exactly why these euphemisms are so essential to the maintenance and increase of state power. The reason that euphemisms are constantly used to obscure “the gun in the room” is the simple fact that people don’t like violence very much. Most people will do almost anything to avoid a violent situation. Just keep pointing out the gun in the room, over and over, until the world finally starts awake and drops it in horror and loathing.'May 26 2011

YouTube -- Freedomain Radio: The State as Family
'Why it is so hard to get people to think rationally about the state?' -- "Your parents own the house, so you have to obey them, or leave. The government owns the country, and so you have to obey it, or leave. Don't you see the pattern? If you want to change the government, change the family. If you want a more peaceful society, have more peaceful families."
