Please enjoy my recent conversation with Christopher Chase Rachels. Herein we discussed how he became a Voluntaryist, founding the Blue Ridge Liberty Project, why Ashville, living with like-minded people, honing the message of liberty, what’s his book about, criticisms, being pro liberty, in your Anarchy society fallacy, every “ism” is the initiation of force except Voluntaryism, voting with your dollars, the Free Market rewards thrift and efficiency, without government we would be savages fallacy, appeal to the stick, the wondrous potential that government force destroys, moral hazard, perverted incentives, intellectual growth requires humility, we’re all born anarchists, military and police are the supreme nationalists, American Sniper, the necessary evil, truth must be complex fallacy, appeal to authority, politicians promising free stuff and more!

 

The great non sequitur committed by defenders of the State, including classical Aristotelian and Thomist philosophers, is to leap from the necessity of society to the necessity of the State.

Herein we discussed how she became an unschooling and peaceful parent, attachment parenting, being an unschooling pioneer, learning and living are inseparable, public school is not the real world, just get out of their way, authoritative parenting, appeal to authority, making hygiene fun, respecting and trusting one’s children, children have self-ownership, letting children play, learning through play, deschooling oneself, unschooled entrepreneurs, joyfully rejoicing, living in the future vs. living in the present, an attitude of gratitude, corporal punishment, being in tune with one’s children, spanking euphemism, questioning authority, paving the unschooling way, legality is diametrically opposed to morality, no chores, helping voluntarily, doing things out of joy, poor literacy and grammar of high school graduates, mixed dominance, recommended books, relevancy of college/university, tiny house movement, debt is economic slavery, stay out debt, recommended websites, love is our resistance, love conquers all and much more!

 

To trust children we must first learn to trust ourselves…and most of us were taught as children that we could not be trusted.
