ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS
The question has been posed; Is the creation of Child Pornography by itself truly harmful to children?
This is a complex question that requires a complex answer. However, before we begin, we would like to emphasize that we are answering this question in isolation from all other forms of sexual abuse of children. We are doing so precisely because the laws treat Child Pornography in this manner.…

THE LAW
At the top of the pyramid we have international treaties and protocols. There are only a few of them which are mostly ineffective. However, one private organization (the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children) seems to have been very successful at influencing countries in changing their laws.
Now, let's take a look at such laws. When it comes to the actual letter of the law, a cursory…

CHILD PORNOGRAPHY - DEFINITION - CONT'D
Class III
Finally, we have a class that can, in general terms, be classified as “true” Child Pornography (if such a thing actually exists). This class represents materials where clearly underage children are depicted participating in sexual acts (from very simple to abhorrent). In the West, this type of material is the one that is typically implied by “agents of the law” when persecution…

Today we are going to begin with a multi-part article which has been overdue for quite some time.
INTRO TO THE INTRO
This is a hectic site, as you may have already noticed. The point we are trying to make is a simple one; Libertarianism (in its absolute flavour) and Austrian Economics are applicable to everyday issues. If they would not be, then there would be no point in us…

One word says it all. And yet again we are forced to comment about the "country that shall not be named" not because of what they are but because of whom they have elected. To be clear, we could spend countless hours dissecting Trump and its style but in the end it is pointless. It matters not.
The USA is on its long way down into oblivion. This much we…
This is Why We Need Communism

For some time now it’s been known that the entire social fabric is decaying. The main culprit of this decay is, of course, the lack of stable, decently remunerated employment. This is so much so, that this new state of affairs has its own little name: The Precariat.
What is The Precariat? This is the layer of people that used to belong to the middle class and now they find…
Venezuela - Life In The Worker's Paradise

Back then in 2013 we reported about Venezuela. We described how Venezuela Is the New Workers Paradise. In that article we described how in October of that year, an economic ticking bomb was about to go off. At that time, Venezuelans were in:
- Electrical emergencies (blackouts)
- Food emergencies (massive shortages)
- Health emergencies (health system collapse)
- Hyperinflation
- Magnicide attempts (a large number of assassination attempt of key government officials)
- Infrastructure emergencies (critical…
Democracy For All, Freedom For None

Today we are going to explore (very briefly) a phenomenon which "democrats" (i.e. those idiots still convinced that democracy is viable) and "democratic politicians" (i.e. those cynical and clever enough to make a living of those idiots mentioned ut-supra) enjoy stating that it does not exist. This is, the "wrong" will of the people.
Apparently, democracy is for "the greater good" because it is the "people's choice" and…
Are We There Yet?

Oftentimes in our daily life we are asked when will this magical evolution into Libertarianism we speak of, going to happen. And we always answer that is happening right now, right under your nose. And so, in order to answer the question in the title we must answer as such: yes and no.
Some of us are there and have been there for a rather long time. Most of you…
