Thanks for your post. Ron Paul and Molyneux are excellent at making logical points but I wonder about their effectuality. Actually, I would argue that Paul has made more of an impact than Molyneux by working within the state even though the latter is the more effective speaker. I think there is also something to be said about Hagel here and that is - we live in a particular kind of world, a society where the message "smash the state" resonates with very few unless its done with respect to the various socially accepted constructs that (and we must grant them atl least this) have gained their merit through historical pedigree. I would also argue that we will find that these free state projects will have a profound effect on changing such statist oriented constructs for the better and people in this community and others related to it should get behind them and try to work with them. Nevertheless, logic is logic and Molyneux, Ron Paul and yourself cannot be said to be wrong. Unfortunately, however, we live in a world that is. You are absolutly right and I will. Thanks Those are some excellent fuckin' questions. Let me go get a bottle of wine. I'll get backed to you in a little while.

Hey all I know what 99% of you think about university and state subsidized education in general so I think it's necessary to preface this post by saying that I pay for all of my courses through working a production based job and when I am at school I make sure to always let my profs know when their Marxism is hanging out. Anyway, I've been following libertarianism for a while now and have been watching with interest the emergence of some of these “free states.” Still, there is very little information on them since they are in their infancy so I've decided to do my masters work on some facet of this movement, which means directly working with them. But I'd like to hear some ideas as to where my research should be directed. For obvious reasons none of my profs would prove helpful for this sort of discourse so I came here, which is no doubt the best place. I promise to share my work, which will include direct involvement with one of the organizations spear heading this fascinating trend. Thanks in advance...
