Description


Read Rothbard is comprised of a small group of voluntaryists who are fans of Murray N. Rothbard. We curate content on the www.ReadRothbard.com site including books, lectures, articles, speeches, and we make a weekly podcast based on his free-market approach to economics. Our focus is on education and how advancement in technology improves the living standards of the average person. The Read Rothbard Podcast is all about Maximum Freedom. We look at movies and current events from a Rothbardian Anarchist perspective. If it's voluntary, we're cool with it. If it's not, then it violated the Non-Aggression Principle and Property Rights - the core tenants of Libertarian Theory - and hence - human freedom.

The Case for a 100 Percent Gold Dollarby Murray N. RothbardPart 2 of 2Rothbard not only argues for the gold standard; he shows how it can be restored in a practical, step-by-step plan. No other system will stop the seemingly endless monetary inflation of the Federal Reserve system. He also makes his strongest case against fractional reserve banking.

WHAT HAS GOVERNMENT DONE TO OUR MONEY?by Murray N. RothbardPart 3 of 3The Monetary Breakdown of the WestRothbard shows precisely how banks create money out of thin air and how the central bank, backed by government power, allows them to get away with it. He shows how exchange rates and interest rates would work in a true free market. When it comes to describing the end of the gold standard, he is not content to describe the big trends. He names names and ferrets out all the interest groups involved.

As announced on our most recent shows, we will be transitioning "the Read Rothbard Podcast" to audiobooks of Murray's books and articles.The second post is his "Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cure" which is a great follow-up to last week's "Anatomy of the State". This gives a cogent understanding of where market-cycles come from, why they occur and how to prevent them.The former "Read Rothbard Podcast" where we talk about movies from an anarcho-capitalist perspective will be re-launched as "the Actual Anarchy Podcast".Look for more audiobook versions of a Murray Rothbard books and articles posting on Fridays each week. More information to come, but here are the details about this book:Economic Depressions: Their Cause and Cureby Murray N. RothbardMurray Rothbard was the master of reducing complicated theories to their very essence while retaining theoretical rigor, and this essay is a case in point. It was originally written in 1969 and published in the form of a tiny book that achieved a huge circulation. Its continued relevance speaks to an aspect of the Austrian theory that other theories can't boast. It is a real theory that applies across time and place, and its persuasive power is not contingent on the particulars of any individual boom-bust cycle.Narrated by Harold Fritsche.

As announced on our most recent shows, we will be transitioning "the Read Rothbard Podcast" to audiobooks of Murray's books and articles.The first post is his "Anatomy of the State" which is a great red-pill, gateway drug for a lot of people to finally see the state for what it is; and what it is not.The former "Read Rothbard Podcast" where we talk about movies from an anarcho-capitalist perspective will be re-launched as "the Actual Anarchy Podcast".Look for more audiobook versions of a Murray Rothbard books and articles posting on Fridays each week. More information to come, but here are the details about this book:Anatomy of the Stateby Murray N. RothbardFollowing Franz Oppenheimer and Albert Jay Nock, Rothbard regards the state as a predatory entity. It does not produce anything, but rather steals resources from those engaged in production. In applying this view to American history, Rothbard makes use of the work of John C. Calhoun.Narrated by Harold Fritsche.

We have another special guest on to discuss the movie Selma for the Martin Luther King Jr. Day Special. Ryan Jones joines us from www.theafrolibertarian.com to discuss the film, MLK's legacy and many other issues related to race and government. This is a long one...and fitting for what is our final episode as the Read Rothbard Podcast. The name will live on, but as Murray Rothbard audiobook versions of his books and articles. The show that we do will also live on as the Actual Anarchy Podcast, where we take a look at movies and events of actual anarchy that surround us every day. It is basically the same show, but we are aligning the title to match up with what we discuss; and we also have the added bonus of no longer appearing to speak for Mr. Rothbard. We hope you enjoy this show and look for us again as we launch www.ActualAnarchy.com and the Actual Anarchy Podcast.

We compare and contrast Disney/Pixar's Ratatouille and Morgan Spurlock's Rats from a non-aggression principled stance. Do not watch the Spurlock movie before the Pixar movie - as it changes the whole thing. Are sentient rats capable of understanding property rights; can they steal? Are we justified in setting traps or shooting them? We discuss these topics and more on this episode.

We talk about the film "Hell or High Water" starring Chris Pine, Jeff Bridges and Ben Foster. It's a 2016 heist film centered on two brothers who rob the bank that their family owe their mortgage to. Oil was recently discovered on the property, but they are at risk of losing the ranch within a few days. They resort to this elaborate bank robbery plan to save the ranch and secure the oil money for their children. No NAP violations here right?!?! We discuss a giant plot hole and a bit about the 2008 financial crisis and fractional reserve lending.For show notes and more, please visit:http://www.readrothbard.com/episode-33Presented by Read Rothbard:Read Rothbard is comprised of a small group of voluntaryists who are fans of Murray N.

Murray Christmas! We discuss Charles Dickens and his holiday story A Christmas Carol and how it is an anti-capitalist, anti-industrial revolution propaganda piece used to argue for additional government interventions. From the anecdotal testimony that is used to play on emotion vs. the reality of actual improvement in living standard (so long as they are voluntarily working in the factories, it is an improvement over their prior alternatives), the enclosure movement, corn laws, etc...So, we pretty much ruin your holiday story with this one....and, there is no Santa Claus!

Episode 31 - Inconceivable!

2016-12-2101:07:23

We didn't say the word Inconceivable while discussing the great Princess Bride movie, which is in itself inconceivable. Robert lists this as one of his favorite movies and we endeavor to pack a few libertarian messages into this familiar story. Also, spoiler alert, I make a mistake on a word definition that Robert is correct on - and I smugly, and incorrectly, try to correct him. Oh well.

We discuss the narrative that Idiocracy is currently viewed as a prescient documentary that foretold today's events regarding Trump being elected President. We argue that this may be true, but not in the way that they think. It is the echo-chamber of social media that allowed people to be blindsided to the Trump-phenomenon and the current attack on "fake news" is only going to double-down on the problem and compound it. This is a pretty fun one that feels like we really hit our stride.Also, apparently I was not quite right about the water being the only thing that expands. A few more things do...but it's RARE PEOPLE!Gallium is a liquid at 85.6 degrees Fahrenheit and expands as it freezes, according to Chemicool. The four other elements that expand when they freeze are silicon, bismuth, antimony and germanium. However, gallium is the only element out of those five that has a melting point near room temperature.For Show Notes and more, please visit: http://www.readrothbard.com/Episode-30Presented by Read Rothbard:Read Rothbard is comprised of a small group of voluntaryists who are fans of Murray N.

We talk about DJango Unchained and some of the various NAP violations contained therein. As it's a Tarantino movie, there are aplenty. We also talk about copyright and counterfeiting where we mostly raise questions and don't have super solid answers. We hope it is at least entertaining.

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled, was convincing the world that he didn't exist." As it is with Verbal Kint in the Usual Suspects, the true evil is just under your nose for the entire film. He engenders himself to the detectives with requests for help, saying he likes cops, spinning yarns, all to distract from the monster beneath. This is much the same way that the government presents itself as a provider of safety and security, what is needed for a civil society - yet it is the largest transgressor upon life and liberty; creating the most pollution, destruction, mayhem and murder in the history of the world. So, at least that's our take on the message from the Usual Suspects. We dive into some specific details, and by the way, if you haven't seen it: spoilers.For Show Notes and more, please visit: http://www.readrothbard.com/Episode-28This episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/DV3hWf0dmT8Read Rothbard is comprised of a small group of voluntaryists who are fans of Murray N.

We talk Fight Club and the annual tradition of Black Friday where people line up in the wee hours after Thanksgiving to get into actual fights over Wal-Mart toasters. We also touch on the death of Castro and how leftists and world leaders (but I digress) are taking the news.For show notes and more, please visit: http://www.readrothbard.com/episode-27============================================Read Rothbard is comprised of a small group of voluntaryists who are fans of Murray N.
