Dispute resolutions are referred to arbitration. Anarchy is founded when one bypasses the state into voluntary system and the state withers away.

Part of exercising your liberty comes down to not caring what everyone else thinks. Hopefully, you are able to do this in a way that doesn’t come off as rude to observers, but sometimes it’s not possible.
Episode 457 has Skyler reading and adding commentary on a blog post by psychology research professor Dr. Peter Gray, who shares and analyzes research by Dr. Kirsten Olson on the many wounds caused by schooling.
Truth shouldn’t be a prison. If there’s a truth you don’t like, do what you can to make a new truth. Make the old truth a lie going into the future.
