I listened to this last night. It was great!

I assume the people he is referring to are the Reason and Cato crowd. The more I read Rothbard, the more I understand what Tom is saying in this speech. It is only a matter of time before he is as well known as he deserves.

Great speech. And some good stuff to think about. I like Rothbard very much more than Friedman, but I am not a "disciple" of either.

Great speech.

And a timely posting, thanks.

what is this fetish of the rothbard people to call every other libertarian a cult? it started of course when Rothbard himself couldn't contain his obsession and envy of Ayn Rand and called her a cult leader. tom woods is being a good rothbardian here.

A cult usually follows a charismatic leader, not not follows him.

Great speech. Tom is out to separate the men from the boys within the libertarian movement, and I applaud his efforts.

Excellent talk, thank you for sharing.
