We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

News from Albania Things in EU land are going to get a lot worse before they get even worse than that. Within 18 months all Europeans could be lumbered with a Green Tax on airline travel.
I don’t know how I managed to read through this article without the veins in my head exploding, especially when sentiments such as this go unchallenged:
“Of course there would be a reduction in the number of people who want to fly. Setting the level will be a political choice …”
A political choice!!?? Readers, this is the voice and mind of the EUnuch.
It is yet another thin end of yet another very thick wedge. The tax, once created, will most assuredly be ‘reviewed’ and ‘adjusted’ until it makes travelling by air impracticable for all but the wealthiest and the bureaucratic elite. Not for nothing have the EUnuchs chained themselves to enviro-mentalist ideology.
I have made a promise with myself never to succumb to the melancholy indulgence of conspiracy-theory but isn’t this the kind of thing the regimes do when they want their tax-cattle to stay put?

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.
