Nothing gets the traditional left and right to join forces quicker than when they encounter a well-spoken libertarian. Citizens, beware of this dangerous extremist! The government is made up of wise public servants who only seek the common good!
In Tom Woods’ book, Real Dissent, he takes on some of the toughest critics of libertarianism in his bold and fearless style. He goes beyond what he calls the index card of allowable opinion, which limits debate in America to a narrow range predetermined by the media and political elites.
Do we debate whether 40% or 35% of our income should be taxed? That’s the kind of debate the New York Times wants. But questioning whether our income should be taxed at all? Now that is considered radical, citizen!
When it comes to foreign policy, Americans are given the choice between bombing a country or starving its people. If you advocate for peace, you’re labeled an “extremist”!
When discussing the Federal Reserve, the focus is always on which policies they should pursue. But what if the Fed itself is the problem? This question is never asked, as it challenges the status quo.
Real Dissent is divided into ten parts:
– Part I: War and Propaganda
– Part II: Capitalism and Anti-Capitalism
– Part III: Libertarianism Attacked, and My Replies
– Part IV: Ron Paul and Forbidden Truths
– Part V: End the Fed
– Part VI: History and Liberty
– Part VII: When Libertarians Go Wrong
– Part VIII: Books You May Have Missed
– Part IX: Talking Liberty: Selected Tom Woods Show Interviews
– Part X: Back to Basics
– Afterword: How I Evaded the Gatekeepers of Approved Opinion
The index card of allowable opinion restricts Americans to fruitless debates and prevents discussion of practical and humane alternatives. It’s time to set that thing on fire in the name of American liberty.
This audiobook is a spark that ignites the flames of dissent.
