Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

It’s obvious that this Mr. Aristotle hasn’t yet received the memo about Affirmative Action.
That’s the Nicomachean Ethics.
(Ecclesiastes 10:19) A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.
Well quoted, and another well deserved flogging of Libertarianism.
Gary Gunnels, duly noted.
Not sure what the flogging was there, Helen!
