By Stefan Molyneux Host, Freedomain http://www.freedomain.com/ Ah, my son, my son… He’s 40 years old, and really needs to change careers. When he was 20, he joined the Ku Klux Klan, because he was concerned that the Klan was getting too big, too aggressive. In those days, they were lynching some poor man every week, […]
About a year and a half ago, I started recording libertarian podcasts in my car during my drive to and from work. It seemed like a fun way to kill the time in traffic, and it also gave me a chance to help clarify my thoughts with regards to various issues that people had written […]

He throws his books on the kitchen table and flashes me a smile, heading to the fridge. “Hey son,” I ask, “Where’d you get the cat?” “Oh” he says, opening the fridge door, “it’s my date’s.” “Your […]
In my role as a business consultant, I am often asked to provide solutions to highly complex problems. Recently, a large, politically well-connected agricultural business paid me a fortune to provide them with a five-year plan on how to best allocate their assets, capital and human resources in order to maximize profitability. The complexity of […]
Compliance is not Freedom First of all, thanks to everyone who shared their thoughts with me about my last article – “The Gun in the Room.” In general, responses tended to fall into two rough categories: Great article! - and You’re insane!
