Happy Birthday Hans!
HansβHermann Hoppe, born September 2, 1949, has carved a singular niche in libertarian thought. After earning a doctorate in philosophy in Germany, he moved to the United States in the 1980s to study under economist Murray Rothbard. His books A Theory of Socialism and Capitalism, The Economics and Ethics of Private Property, and Democracy: The God That Failed argue that the modern state is predatory and that a free society rests on private property, voluntary exchange, and decentralized order.

As I was laying awake at 0300 this morning, I got to thinking that when world War 2 ended in 1945, until the time I went to Desert Storm in 1990 that was 45 year. Jesus Christ, it's now been 35 years since I went to combat. Fuck I'm old!
Also #SparksSharps #rule9 #alwayscarryaknife #edc... I was Edc before it was even a thing... I'm pretty sure that is the M9 bayonet (they told us not to sharpen, which I fucking absolutely did) 

Didn't get many reactions on this one in Facebook. I found this sign at the Tennessee Capitol back in 2016... Those that know me... Well they would think it funny... #ancap #antiwar #anarchist 

My tin foil hat post. Though these days, now I'm worried as it's actually aluminum, which can affect your brain... Now more things to worry about. 

Fucking Debil NPC comments are tops...

This guy is full on retard. 

Wait! Wut? Hmmm, shit they don't fucking teach you. Pisses me off...
They came as slaves: human cargo transported on British ships bound for the Americas. They were shipped by thehundreds of thousands and included men, women, and even the youngest of children.
Whenever they rebelled or even disobeyed an order, they were punished in the harshest ways. Slave owners would hang their human property by their hands and set their hands or feet on fire as one form of punishment. Some were burned alive and had their heads placed on pikes in the marketplace as a warning to other captives.
We don't really need to go through all of the gory details, do we? We know all too well the atrocities of the African slave trade.
But are we talking about African slavery? King James VI and Charles I also led a continued effort to enslave the Irish. Britain's Oliver Cromwell furthered this practice of dehumanizing one's next door neighbor.
The Irish slave trade began when James VI sold 30,000 Irish prisoners as slaves to the New World. His Proclamation of 1625 required Irish political prisoners be sent overseas and sold to English settlers in the West Indies.
By the mid 1600s, the Irish were the main slaves sold to Antigua and Montserrat. At that time, 70% of the total population of Montserrat were Irish slaves.
Ireland quickly became the biggest source of human livestock for English merchants. The majority of the early slaves to the New World were actually white.
From 1641 to 1652, over 500,000 Irish were killed by the English and another 300,000 were sold as slaves. Ireland's population fell from about 1,500,000 to 600,000 in one single decade.
Families were ripped apart as the British did not allow Irish dads to take their wives and children with them across the Atlantic. This led to a helpless population of homeless women and children. Britain's solution was to auction them off as well.
During the 1650s, over 100,000 Irish children between the ages of 10 and 14 were taken from their parents and sold as slaves in the West Indies, Virginia and New England. In this decade, 52,000 Irish (mostly women and children) were sold to Barbados and Virginia.
Another 30,000 Irish men and women were also transported and sold to the highest bidder. In 1656, Cromwell ordered that 2000 Irish children be taken to Jamaica and sold as slaves to English settlers.
Many people today will avoid calling the Irish slaves what they truly were: Slaves. They'll come up with terms like "Indentured Servants" to describe what occurred to the Irish. However, in most cases from the 17th and 18th centuries, Irish slaves were nothing more than human cattle.
As an example, the African slave trade was just beginning during this same period. It is well recorded that African slaves, not tainted with the stain of the hated Catholic theology and more expensive to purchase, were often treated far better than their Irish counterparts.
African slaves were very expensive during the late 1600s (Β£50 Sterling). Irish slaves came cheap (no more than Β£5 Sterling). If a planter whipped, branded or beat an Irish slave to death, it was never a crime. A death was a monetary setback, but far cheaper than killing a more expensive African.
The English masters quickly began breeding the Irish women for both their own personal pleasure and for greater profit. Children of slaves were themselves slaves, which increased the size of the master's free workforce.
Even if an Irish woman somehow obtained her freedom, her kids would remain slaves of her master. Thus, Irish mothers, even with this new found emancipation, would seldom abandon their children and would remain in servitude.
In time, the English thought of a better way to use these women to increase their market share: The settlers began to breed Irish women and girls (many as young as 12) with African men to produce slaves with a distinct complexion. These new "mulatto" slaves brought a higher price than Irish livestock and, likewise, enabled the settlers to save money rather than purchase new African slaves.
This practice of interbreeding Irish females with African men went on for several decades and was so widespread that, in 1681, legislation was passed "forbidding the practice of mating Irish slave women to African slave men for the purpose of producing slaves for sale." In short, it was stopped only because it interfered with the profits of a large slave transport company.
England continued to ship tens of thousands of Irish slaves for more than a century. Records state that, after the 1798 Irish Rebellion, thousands of Irish slaves were sold to both America and Australia. There were horrible abuses of both African and Irish captives. One British ship even dumped 1,302 slaves into the Atlantic Ocean so that the crew would have plenty of food to eat.
There is little question the Irish experienced the horrors of slavery as much (if not more, in the 17th Century) as the Africans did. There is also little question that those brown, tanned faces you witness in your travels to the West Indies are very likely a combination of African and Irish ancestry.
In 1839, Britain finally decided on it's own to end its participation in Satan's highway to hell and stopped transporting slaves. While their decision did not stop pirates from doing what they desired, the new law slowly concluded this chapter of Irish misery.
But, if anyone, black or white, believes that slavery was only an African experience, then they've got it completely wrong. Irish slavery is a subject worth remembering, not erasing from our memories.
But, why is it so seldom discussed? Do the memories of hundreds of thousands of Irish victims not merit more than a mention from an unknown writer?
Or is their story to be the one that their English masters intended: To completely disappear as if it never happened.
None of the Irish victims ever made it back to their homeland to describe their ordeal. These are the lost slaves; the ones that time and biased history books conveniently forgot.
Interesting historical note: the last person killed at the Salem Witch Trials was Ann Glover. She and her husband had been shipped to Barbados as a slave in the 1650's. Her husband was killed there for refusing to renounce Catholicism.
In the 1680's she was working as a housekeeper in Salem. After some of the children she was caring for got sick she was accused of being a witch.
At the trial they demanded she say the Lord's Prayer. She did so, but in Gaelic, because she didn't know English. She was then hung.

MENGER IN 7 BULLETS
Carl Mengerβs Principles of Economics (1871) is the founding text of the Austrian School.
Principles replaced labor-cost theories of value with a subjective, marginal-utility-based theory, showing that goods derive their value from individual wants and scarcity, with value flowing backward from consumption to production, and all economic phenomena rooted in individual choice.
1. Subjective Theory of Value
Value is not inherent in objects (as in labor theories of value) but arises from the importance an individual assigns to the good for satisfying their needs.
Goods are valuable because they fulfill wants, not because of the labor or cost that went into producing them.
2. Marginal Utility
Menger introduced the principle that the value of a good depends on the marginal utility of the last unit consumed, not on the total usefulness of the good.
Example: Water is essential, but because it is abundant, its marginal utility (and market price) is low compared to diamonds, which are scarce.
3. Theory of Goods and Orders
He developed a hierarchy of goods: First-order goods: directly satisfy human wants (bread, clothing). Higher-order goods: used to produce first-order goods (flour, ovens, wheat).
The value of higher-order goods derives from their ability to contribute to the production of lower-order goods that meet actual needs.
4. Causality and Imputation
Value flows backward from consumption to production. The value of inputs (labor, raw materials, tools) comes from the value of the final goods they help produce, not the other way around.
This was a reversal of classical cost-of-production theories.
5. Scarcity as Essential for Value
Goods only become βeconomic goodsβ (i.e., subject to valuation and exchange) when they are scarce relative to demand.
If something is abundant and available without effort (like air), it has no economic value despite being useful.
6. Foundation for Price Theory
Menger explained that prices emerge from the subjective valuations of individuals in exchange, not from objective βcostβ or labor time.
This subjective foundation later became central to Austrian price theory and distinguished it sharply from Marx and Ricardo.
7. Methodological Individualism
Economic laws must be derived from the choices and preferences of individual actors, not from aggregates like βclassesβ or βsociety.β
This methodological starting point set Austrian economics apart from Marxism and from later mathematical economics.
