Ayn Rand was, at least rhetorically speaking, a capitalist and an anti-libertarian. Shouldn’t we, libertarians, regard this as significant when considering the value of the term “capitalist”?
Malcolm X on Slaves Doing the Masters’ Bidding
Posted: 22 March 2010 by Little Alex in National News, Political ScienceTags: Adolf Hitler, Af-Pak War, Afghanistan, AIPAC, American Empire, anarchism, anti-Statism, bailout, banking, corporatism, Democratic Party, Democrats, economy, fascism, Federal Reserve, field negro, health care, healthcare reform, house negro, human rights, Iraq, law, libertarian, liberty, Malcolm X, Middle East, Newspeak, Noam Chomsky, Obama, Obama Administration, politics, propaganda, secession, Sheldon Richman, Somalia, Twitter, US, Wall Street, War, War on Terror, Yemen
Brother Malcolm lays out the game masters use to play their plantation against each other, form a system where the slaves fight each other for the masters’ approval, identify with the master who kills him slowly. If you still think politics is the avenue toward justice, if politicians will ever dismantle the ruling class, if becoming one with State will moralize its inherent antisocial nature, if politicians will ever really give a shit about you; if you still cling to the self-defeating belief that there’s an ounce of virtue in loving ‘your’ country, supporting ‘your’ president, exercising ‘your’ democratic opportunities by pulling a lever like a Pavlovian monkey every 2-4 years, Malcolm had something to say to you (8:32):

Kevin Carson breaks down the broken healthcare system in America in a rational manner that debunks the conventional wisdom of the so-called ‘left and right’.
