The Story of Five Monkeys

[Calvin]

Here is an interesting experiment: The Story of Five Monkeys. 2 minute YouTube video that accurately demonstrates how statism is perpetuated through fear-based sociological exploitation.

Along with the Stanford prison experiment, Milgram obedience experiment, and Asch conformity experiment; the empirical evidence needed to prove why government is hazardous is quite complete. How long will it take for individuals to embrace corrective action? Is there any more evidence we should be waiting around for? The state has consistently proven its nature to us time and time again: "pay or get shot".

Many times in history the cyclic struggle for freedom has experienced many times of renaissance and dark ages alike. However, as the speed and quality of communication continues to grow, so does the push towards freedom. Hopefully, this evolutionary stage of technology is well-oiled enough to facilitate rapid transit towards a voluntary society.

Pipe dreams? Perhaps. But then again, the geocentric universe, slavery, and monopolies were easily, obviously, and quickly accepted as inconsistent models once the logic was criticised and understood by the layman.
