So, I mean, well, I just think I see libertarians as and I'll use some leftist language here, but they're like they're a dominated minority.
If you're a right wing libertarian, you're five percent of the population in America.
You know, and so five percent of the population never gets what they want.
But when five percent of the population concentrates in one place, you know, the most successful anarchists in America are the Amish.
The Amish don't have to pay Social Security.
They don't have to register for the draft.
They did this by being a physically concentrated population who was willing to stand up.
You can look at what the Mormons have been able to achieve in Utah.
You can look at, I wouldn't always endorse everything they do, you can look at what the Hasidic Jews have done in New Jersey and, you know, New York, where they've, you know, sort of taken over these local towns.
And this is a real strategy that works.
It does work here in New Hampshire, where, you know, again, if something happens, I have a whole team of people behind me, not just people, I have people in positions of power.
We have influence and control over various institutions.
you know, we're doing our own sort of march through the institutions here.
And so to me, this is a real strategy.
A democracy in general, whether it's the free state movement or something else, by the way, it might be something else, but a democracy has never voted itself out of socialism.
We haven't seen, you know, we basically continue to expand the franchise.
