[Ed Note: My friend Bill is 92, but as this will show his mind can be razor-sharp, vastly clearer than any you are likely to meet on TV, radio or national newpaspers. If any part of it seems hard to accept, do as the late Charlie Kirk might have suggested: try to prove him wrong. The following is a feast.]

Why is Government always the principal subject of public discussion? Because the existence of Government violates the Natural Rights of everyone; and everyone is struggling to understand this malevolent institution which inevitably creates conflicts and chaos.

Government is not what it is cracked up to be, by politicians and professors alike.

Government is supposed to protect Rights, but it does no such thing. Government violates Rights in many ways, principally by taxation. No ordinary citizens voluntarily sign explicit contracts with Government to pay taxes in exchange for specific services. If such contracts existed, we would be operating in the Economic Marketplace, not in the Political Arena. Taxes are paid at the point of a Government gun. Taxes are bribes that the citizens are forced to pay the politicians for the privilege of living outside the politicians' jails for the coming year.

The few essential services that Government supplies can be provided more efficiently and more justly by free enterprises in the Marketplace.

By definition, the Political Arena is morally inferior to the Economic Marketplace.

Contrary to a universal pipe dream, Government cannot maintain peace. Governments are forever seeking to usurp the powers of other Governments, and the taxes that the citizens of these other Governments must pay. Government is the cause of war. War is the result of Government. As history abundantly affirms.

By not understanding the nature of Government, by not opposing the existence of Government, the citizens are tacitly approving their own exploitation and victimization by intellectual savages.

Government is not Liberty and Peace; Government is Power and Control.

There are no rational alternatives to a free market.

There are no rational alternatives to Liberty.

Some say that without government, there would be chaos. Hello? For thousands of years, there has been Government; and for thousands of years, there has been chaos.

With Government, there has been nothing but chaos.

Without Government, there would be Liberty, Order, and Peace.

The lethal contradictions inherent in the notion of Government must be universally understood and rejected, and soon, or World War III will destroy forever the semi-civilized order upon this Earth.
