Ok I'm not sure you understand volunteerism what stefbot talks about as it's core is free trade aka capitalism. Austrian Economics is not just a way to evaluate economic systems it IS an economic system.

I know about Austrian Economics, it's just a way of evaluating the market, similar to what we do hear, it's not a ground braking solution, what we need is to get ride of the federal reserve and stop living on credit cards, we will never be solvent working under the federal reserve, impossible!

I subbed to Stefbot hes a wacko two, this movement just talks a lot of crap without any good alternative, you get ride of capitalistic then what do you replace it with, socialism, communism, no thanks, theres nothing wrong with our capitalistic system, the corruption within and from without is the problem, the nuts are in charge, that can happen under any system.

Hears the Gandie story everyone likes to use, were not talking apples for apples, he worked from within the system, boycotted English goods, he had an alternative solution, A Plan!

Gandhi was born in Porbander in western India. In 1888, he went to London to study law. He returned to Bombay to work as a barrister but went to South Africa to work in 1907. In South Africa, he took part in passive protests against the Transvaal government's treatment of Indian settlers who were in the minority in the region. In 1915, he returned to India and, after joining the Congress movement, he emerged as one of the party's leaders.

Gandhi encouraged Indians to boycott British goods and buy Indian goods instead. This helped to revitalise local economies in India and it also hit home at the British by undermining their economy in the country. Gandhi preached passive resistance, believing that acts of violence against the British only provoked a negative reaction whereas passive resistance provoked the British into doing something which invariably pushed more people into supporting the Indian National Congress movement.

Gandhi was imprisoned in 1922, 1930, 1933 and in 1942. While in prison, he went on hunger strike. His fame was such that his death in prison would make international headlines and greatly embarrass the British at a time when Britain was condemning dictators in Europe.

In 1931, Gandhi came to Britain for the Round Table conferences. Nothing was achieved except for the publicity that Gandhi received for dressing in the clothes of an Indian villager; Gandhi saw this type of dress as perfectly normal for a man who represented the Indian people. The British representatives at the conference were more soberly dressed in formal morning dress.

When in India, Gandhi took on the British where possible. He famous walk to the sea to produce salt was typical of his actions. Britain had a monopoly on salt production in India and Gandhi saw this as wrong. Hence his decision to produce salt by the sea.

He realised that the religious issues of India were too deep for any remedy to work. Hence he collaborated with Mountbatten and Wavell in the build up to independence in 1947. This association with the break-up of India was to cost him his life. There had been one assassination attempt on Gandhi on January 20th 1948 - it had failed. Just ten days later on the 30th January, he was assassinated by a Hindu fanatic who could not forgive Gandhi for his belief that Muslims had equal value to Hindus and no-one was better than anybody else.

I think you are missing a lot of their points MAC the message I got was 'Just Live Free' here and now.  Do a bit of research into Austrian Economics and look up this guy stefbot  go to his earlier posts to find his overall view on anarchism/volunteerism, very interesting stuff and ill answer your confusion about them and many related subjects.

yeah I think I was subscribed to there channel before, after a year they still made no sense to me, so I finally dumped them, they are like anarchist or something, socialist maybe ? they are against capitalism, they talk a good game but that's about it.

thought provoking, I have looked into several similar vids on youtube with the same mindset, there selling an idea with no other alternative way to survive, how do you buy homes, how do you walk away from the game, or get enough people to make a difference, they give no alternative solution, they also talk about a country with no government, just how long would we last in this word without a military, they are ether talking way over my head or talking bull shit, I see no logical workable alternative within this movement, just gobbledygook

Excellent video!!! The Free Sons of Liberty Academy really know what REAL freedom is all about; freedom within, manifested outwards. You can not have freedom lest you have owned it within first ;)

Ignore... ignore... ignore the whores on the shore of the Potomac! They only are on self serve and no longer serve the public!
