This is just nonsensical propaganda. In fact, this is the very reason I don't like Molyneaux: he's just a modern scientificist propagandist.

In this video, for instance, you have the old marxist thesis that society is just class welfare determined by the stage of technology - which Marx calls "stage of productive forces". This is just nonsensical, but it can have an emotional appeal to some people.

I'm a fan of Molyneaux, I think this video is intended to have emotional appeal to reach a larger audience. I can't watch it again now, but from my memory of it, it might overly simplify history.

great video - it unlocked a friend of mine to the liberty movement. If you like it share it. If you don't, then please just keep your negative opinions to yourself.

The video has some strong positive points.
Sadly, they clearly want us to believe that economic freedom is "bad for us and good for the State", unless we completely abolish the Gov.

If you want to teach a good, basic intro to freedom, try:

Decent video. There's another one he did that I liked better, it was easier for some people to grasp. Lemme see if I can find it.

Stefan is consistent in his adherence to the non-aggression principle, that is he is against the state in all its forms as for a government to exist it must initiate force on a population. Government is immoral in any form and of any size even a "limited" constitutional government... We already tried that and it failed. I cannot logically argue against Stefans arguement for the abolition of government while still maintaining any support for limited government.

That is how i went from a Libertarian to an Anarcho Capitalist

I like this one better for turning people on to this stuff. The only downside, I think, is the language used in one part might insult some religious people.

Oh, and at the end, where he makes it sound like a voluntary society would be a perfect utopia, I think that's a bit of an exaggeration. I'm sure people would still lie, cheat, rob and murder, although to a much lesser extent in the absence of a state which sanctions such activities.
