I like this guy. He’s an Anarco-Cap.

For once, I talk about how to CHANGE the State rather than abolishing it.
No, I didn’t recant.
I’m just talking to those who believe the State to be NECESSARY, and telling them why they are failing at EVERY turn to reign it in. In short, Minarchists. Those who would still choose a master, but one they could keep watch on.
I do NOT espouse this position, but I did at one time. And I knew then and know now how you can effect change that is actually change on THIS system.
The Presidential election is one of the most elaborate frauds in modern history. We, the People, have NEVER elected even ONE president since the establishment of the corporate entity known as the United States of America.
This is as it should be. The Constitution doesn’t define the President as a popular electoral position, but an internal one.
Originally, the people voted on ONE house. The house of representatives. This, too, is by design.
The Seventeenth Amendment, an artful fraud in itself, changed that.
What all statists need to understand is that the Seventeenth is the official declaration by the Federal Government that it no longer recognizes State Sovereignty. Regardless of your thoughts or stance on this issue, you NEED to know the fact of it. By taking the way the Senate is elected, rather than simply allowing the State to choose ITS representatives (2, no more than 2!) by ANY means that they choose and giving that to a popular vote ends the Senate in all but name. It was supposed to be a check on Federal power. The Feds don’t like checks on their power.
But if you want to effect change, you have two houses at the Federal level and NUMEROUS local/county/state opportunities to utterly change the composition of the entity you are targeting.
