Keith Knight joins me to discuss the Voluntaryist Handbook. This Handbook covers several prominent libertarian essays on topics such as: the deceptive tendencies of the state, the definition of the free market, the conflict of collectivism, and six questions for the statists. Keith Knight is the organizer of the Voluntaryist Handbook. He is also the Managing Editor at Libertarian Institute. // GUEST // Voluntaryist Handbook: https://libertarianinstitute.org/books/voluntaryist-handbook/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/an_capitalist Website: https://odysee.com/@KeithKnightDontTreadOnAnyone:b// SPONSORS // In Wolf's Clothing: https://wolfnyc.com/iCoin Hardware Wallet (use discount code BITCOIN23): https://www.icointechnology.com/ Wasabi Wallet: https://wasabiwallet.io/ Casa (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://keys.casa/ Bitcoin Apparel (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://thebitcoinclothingcompany.com/ Feel Free Tonics (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://botanictonics.com Carnivore Bar (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://carnivorebar.com/ // OUTLINE // 00:00:00 - Coming up 00:00:21 - Intro 00:01:55 - Helping Lightning Startups with In Wolf's Clothing 00:02:41 - Introducing Keith Knight 00:03:31 - Coercivists and Voluntaryists 00:07:01 - Divide and Conquer by the State 00:10:42 - Why the State Always Lies 00:12:36 - Statism is an Emergent Property 00:15:50 - Unpacking the Notion of Free Market 00:19:32 - Running a Business in the Free Market 00:22:35 - The Line Between Greed and Self-Interest 00:25:30 - Secure Your Bitcoin Stash with the iCoin Hardware Wallet 00:26:26 - Three Thought Experiments 00:30:13 - Explaining Statism and Taxation in Layman’s Terms 00:34:23 - Individualism and the War of Collectivism 00:39:42 - Low-Resolution Depiction of Reality 00:43:38 - The Slavery of Conscription 00:48:10 - Redrafting in the United States 00:49:08 - A Bitcoin Wallet with Privacy Built-In: Wasabi Wallet 00:49:59 - Hold Bitcoin in the Most Secure Custody Model with Casa 00:50:47 - Private Governance 00:54:00 - The Cooperation of Competitors 00:55:26 - A Real-Life Example of Private Property Violation 00:59:08 - The Game of Incentive 01:00:42 - Six Questions for Statists 01:02:06 - Solving the Problem in Question 01:04:04 - Applying Anarchic Solution 01:05:22 - Questioning Individual Action 01:07:09 - Voluntarily Coercive 01:08:13 - Does Political Organization Change Human Nature? 01:11:00 - Where to find Keith's Work on the Internet// PODCAST // Podcast Website: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-what-is-money-show/id1541404400Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/25LPvm8EewBGyfQQ1abIsE? RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/MLdpYXYI// SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL // Bitcoin: 3D1gfxKZKMtfWaD1bkwiR6JsDzu6e9bZQ7 Sats via Strike: https://strike.me/breedlove22 Sats via Tippin.me: https://tippin.me/@Breedlove22 Dollars via Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/RBreedlove// WRITTEN WORK // Medium: https://breedlove22.medium.com/ Substack: https://breedlove22.substack.com/// SOCIAL // Breedlove Twitter: https://twitter.com/Breedlove22 WiM?
