Were there no consequences for murder as a 13yo?

You're going to buy it, right? That's a great price if it runs.

I use protonmail because they don't demand insane personal info, like a mobile #, before using email. And it's not as widely blocked as GMX.
Yeah, if you want to stay private you've got lots and lots of things to think about. You probably shouldn't be using email at all, for one thing.

> 287 people in youth detention
Rates matter.
https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/youth-justice/youth-detention-population-in-australia-2021/contents/data-visualisation/rates-of-youth-detention
Queensland was at 4.7 youth incarcerated per 100k (less than Northern Territory).
For comparison, not even one state of the US is in the single digits for that stat (mine, like many, is triple-digit).

If they could extract more tax revenue (regardless of rate) without upsetting their friends and/or causing a revolt, they would. Doesn't matter if it comes from rich or poor.
If they did get their hands on more wealth, I have no idea why you would imagine it going to something other than enriching the ruling class. That's what they always do with it, because they have no reason not to. There is no accountability, and they do not care about you, or the world for that matter.

I don't think I can get past the first couple paragraph. If he's going to be so grotesquely dishonest as to pretend inequality and injustice have to do with each other, how can I trust him to deal with an ideo as often abused as "freedom"?
Honestly, even the first sentence should've been enough. "who could object?" Most people , obviously. Most people are not OK with their neighbors being free.
The second paragraph beings with an outright lie.

Turns out I'm not getting post holes dug in my skull this week after all.

Depends on the kind of libertarian, I guess. But the last libertarian gathering I went to had multiple talks and workshops related to crypto. And I hear it come up on libertarian podcasts, and libertarianism come up on one crypto podcast.

Not the latter part, no.
