yeah, Anthony's cool. I've had a lot of email contact with him. To answer the question above. My goal is a voluntary society. Government is why there are no voluntary societies. Government is contrary and destructive of freedom and liberty. There's a great article about my thoughts on government here: www.adventuresinlegalland.com/hatesfreedom.html

Darren, I would assume he is against all government since government means control. Well I'm not so sure. During the 2004 "election" Alex was saying he would vote the Constitution party because the Libertarian party was not taking a "pro-life" position re. abortion. Similiar to Ayn Rand, it appears that Alex believes that some level of government is necessary but that it should be both minimal and restrained by some written instrument. Ironic since freedom="absence of restraint" and govern="restrain". I'm not picking Alex for any personal reason (I love what his show provides, and after 9-11 the huge increase in listeners and website viewers demonstrated he is certainly providing a valuable and important service). I just think he's got tens of thousands of regular listeners and has so many diverse guests that it would be helpful to get a lot of them thinking about the "looting and violence" basis of government (as covered so well by the above Lew Rockwell article). For anyone who is interested I've got a tentative "draft" of what I would like to say in a future phone call (and I am thinking of utilizing this for people like Sean Limbaugh and Rush Hannity and the like too) check it out here ... dragondirt.proboards44.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=gaffe&thread=1130636149

Actually Darren, the way you worded it it sounded like you were asking Marcs opinion on government. Thats why I said what I did. I think its a great idea to ask that of Alex though. Keep everyone updated on your progress.

I have just listened on your first stream show and you rock it out Marc. You really hold up the show no doubt. Keep going on the good libertarian homework you do. CHEER! Day quote: The ‘state’ holds securities on your body, land, business, marriage, children, auto, etc. .. communism, because state holds the title, state makes the laws, and the communist state keeps track of your benefits and duties through a system of accounting, not through service and love.

Thanks guys! What a great example of time distortion, that hour goes FAST. I will not always have two guests on in one show, so please don't be discouraged from calling in. I wanted both for my first show for personal reasons. Ernie was the first AM radio show host to have me on. I also miss hearing Ernie on the radio.
