| Introduction | I am the wife of tax heretic / anarchist writer Larken Rose, with whom many of you are familiar. I was raised religious and conservative, in both England and the U.S. My future anarchism was foreshadowed by my very favorite English pony book, Jago. Unlike so many "free-spirited" horses who ultimately submit to one special child, Jago was a horse who refused to be domesticated, at all, by anyone. In time, Jago became, for me, a metaphor for undomesticated humanity. In the early '90s, Larken and I talked each other over the edge of libertarianism into full-fledged anarchism. After many discussions about the legitimate role of government in society, we both realized that the non-aggression principle rules out government-as-we-know-it altogether. Anarchism seems to be growing increasingly popular, and I am hoping that this little blog might help push a few more people over the edge. |
