In keeping with the Off Grid Agorist tradition, this episode is where we give our predictions for 2022 and we revisit last year's predictions to see what we missed and what we got right.

This is not a live stream episode because the live stream version was comically awful. Of course, it was live so if you want a good laugh go watch it on YouTube.

Any conversation you have with an agorist about anarchy will inevitably lead to topics like the non-aggression principle(N.A.P.), freedom of association, and voluntary interaction.

These are all great topics worth a deep dive, but there is one concept that is at the core of all of these topics.

Self-ownership

As with many other philosophies, agorism holds the idea of self-ownership as absolutely fundamental. It's an either/or state of existence.

Either you do own yourself or you don't. And, if you do, then it guides all the above topic discussions.

It goes like this. If I own myself then;

- You must own yourself too and I don't have any right to initiate violence against you and you don't have any right to initiate violence against me.

- I have every right to use any force necessary to repel violence against me.

- I am free to associate myself with whomever I choose and for whatever reasons I choose without permission from others.

- All interactions with me require my consent for them to be legitimate. and any interactions I have with you require your consent.

These are really simple ideas and most people agree with them except when it comes to the government. People excuse the government from these very simple yet obviously moral principles. Why is that?

People must excuse the government from these sets of moral codes because they believe we must have government and government can not exist under such restraint of behavior.

If this short article resonates at all with how you view liberty then I highly recommend the book "The World's Most Dangerous Superstition" by Larken Rose.

Larken has an incredible way of distilling some really complex thinking down to easily digestible bits. If you are seriously searching for a moral perspective of liberty then this is a must read.

We talk a lot about the government and its inability and unwillingness to control its own growth. We talk a lot about the uselessness of the constitution in reigning in the powers of government. We talk a lot about how voting has very little if any impact on meaningful change in the government. Now let's talk about something that does have an impact.

Let's talk about the action of entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs are the front lines of any push back against the government. They are the ones to push back against regulations. They are the ones to decide whether or not to provide a product or service that may or may not be "allowed" by the government.

Make no mistake about it - the person dealing weed out of their apartment is as much of an entrepreneur as the person running a fully state-sanctioned, licensed business. It was the state's inability to even slow the growth of marijuana use with its multi-billion-dollar war on drugs that has made marijuana legal in most states now.

This in large part is because of the entrepreneur who refused to bow to the state's commandments. These millions of entrepreneurs who used to operate in the black market now operate in the gray market.

And, it's not just the weed dealers either. What about all those people that started giving rides under the Uber umbrella when it wasn't legal in most of the states they operated in.. The point is that there are enough people willing to accept the risks of dealing in a black market that it can impact the actions of the government.

We often hear the phrase "Vote with your pocketbook". This is the only vote that matters when it comes to government.

If you want to reduce or eliminate government then take the fight to the market and forget about the ballot box. We should all know by now that's a rigged game.

Find a gray or black market that will allow you to use your own skill sets and start a business.

Evaluate your own aversion to risk and find a sector in the gray or black market that aligns with that tolerance level.

Stop operating in the white market where the government has all the control and takes whatever it wants from you at will.

If you're unfamiliar with the different market classifications I've been discussing then I suggest listening to "What is Agorism: Part 2".

This is how entrepreneurship is an act of rebellion. Starting a gray market or black market business allows you to keep more of your own money while diminishing the power of the state and voicing an opinion about the tyranny of government.
