My father Paul Anderson aka Andynoise passed away May 4 2021 at the age of 58 unexpectedly but peacefully in his sleep. I give my recollection of events and share some of my experiences with him as much as I can right now. Thank you for all your condolences they are very much appreciated right now, my father is deeply cared for.

Out walking and talking about my view of the “pursuit of happiness” and its relation to government.

Recorded November 2017. Pretty much still hold to what I said for Georgist libertarianism while I waffle around minarchism which I am now more insistent on. The voluntary taxation thing is kinda half baked when I was moving away from the ancap stuff and is superseded by the Georgist material.

Elaboration of my views at the end of the year which are individualist anarchism or competitive federalism with Georgism and Mutualism. Only thing to add is I’m for free banking along with my proposal of a public land bank and that government would effectively be a voluntary commune.

Thoughts about the political-economic doctrine of mutualism and how we could get there.

A discussion of my views about property rights and the commons under a Lockean understanding of property rights. A view between right and left libertarianism.

An updated version of classical liberal minarchism which allows for a limited police power, defined public goods, proportional taxation and a broad safety net which may be called minarchy-plus or minarchy-lite. Plus my thoughts on yellow contracts and closed shops at the end.

Recorded November 2017. Pretty much still hold to what I said for Georgist libertarianism while I waffle between around minarchism. The voluntary taxation thing is kinda half baked and these are abstract principles.
