Episode 1 - Hoch Die Anarchie!

"I do not recognize your law, jumbled together as it is by the nobodies of bygone centuries... I am the enemy of the 'order' of today, and I repeat that, with all my powers, so long as breath remains in me, I shall combat it."

Louis Lingg rebukes the court as they pass a death sentence on him. He stood falsely accused of bombing a crowd during the Haymarket Riot in 1886. Rather than allow the state to hang him, he detonated an explosive in his mouth, and allegedly scrawled "Hoch die Anarchie!" (Hurrah for anarchy) on the jail cell wall in his own blood while dying.
He's an extreme example, but it's a hell of a story. And he clearly understood that the system was not all it is cracked up to be.

The state is guilty of many crimes against its own citizens, and it's not something new. Here I introduce the show and some examples of how government interferes with prosperity and peace. There are some ideas that may sound radical to many people, but that's because we've never known anything but this undercover slavery. Listen in and let me know what you think!
