RE: You and I: Discovering our Natural Opposition to Authority

Just keep in mind to be "wise as a snake". You won't get support beyond a few weeks or months if you are arrested for proclaiming your sovereignty. Look at the Bundy family languishing incommunicado after the Oregon and Bundy Ranch standoffs.

Great point. We certainly have to be carful in the authoritarian environment we live in, and we should be "wise as a snake." I think we can live plenty free by committing acts of micro-rebellion that may eventually help destabilize the system. I believe just using this platform is also a kind of revolutionary act. It is direct involvement in adopting an alternative currency to the fiat system. I certainly agree that brazenness can get us killed, though. Tread softly.
