Much happened since I made my original post in Liberty.me. For example, the original name “The Anarcho Capitalist’s Life in Acapulco” has been changed, it was too much of a mouth full. After a 20 minute brainstorming session with the community at a local restaurant down here in Acapulco, we decided that Seeking Freedom: The Acapulco Files was much better title and so it was. On top of that, the community has grown significantly, as has our view of how this documentary will be released. Instead of a series of 5 Episodes, we will be releasing shorter mini documentaries on...
The Anarcho Capitalist Life in Acapulco is a Documentary about the joys and challenges of moving to a chosen community and being part of group of people that share your values, while living abroad. It will feature a series of interviews of individuals and families that have moved to Acapulco, telling their story and answering the most common and important questions about expatriation and liberty minded communities.

Since I learned of libertarianism, I've been hearing talk of the USSA collapsing very soon. Its been a few years now, some were more conservative some were not, but either way, does it not feel like its stretching out a bit too long? Yes, it is a slow collapse, things get slowly more and more difficult for the common man, healthcare gets even worse, police brutality increases, riots and protests begin rising up in major cities. No 1 million dollar bill yet though. And though I do see conflicts between the police and the lower middle classes rising, I am sceptical...
Bitcoin technology has opened up a Pandora’s box of financial innovation. No longer do users need to trust third parties or banks with their life’s savings and transaction information. Nor must they be exposed to the inevitable loss of purchasing power resulting from overwhelming markets with new dollars, in a centrally executed process sometimes called ‘Quantitative easing’. Bitcoin has opened up the market of currency creation to competition and liberated it greatly from the physical bonds that place money under the power of violent groups or individuals. Like with all great innovations however, new choices are presented to us...
Condemning crypto-currencies for facilitating terrorism — while a generation of Pakistani children now fear blue skies because it makes it easier for flying military robots to rain hellfire down upon them — is completely insane. Anonymity and Bitcoin are in many’s eyes, intertwined. Since the early days of Bitcoin, a popular myth of the digital currency was its alleged anonymity. This side of Bitcoin drew the attention of those interested in illegal trade, a preference for privacy, or even just as part of a moral stance on the issue. This helped encourage adoption and furthered its cause. Recent developments however...

An Old Problem As Bitcoin and its Altcoin offspring spread throughout the web, more and more individuals are seeing the vast opportunities of what may be one of the freest...
-Seen first at TheCoinFront- If we have learned anything from the internet age, it is that human beings love sharing information. Our minds beat with all kinds of ideas every second, its virtual expression pumping life into a global realm of information. This helps our knowledge and our human experience fluorish far beyond our individual or cultural imagination.Thanks to the internet, everyone can communicate any idea. This include games, movies, music, and much more. Most of the world's creativity is just a few clicks away. No longer do we have to have our book approved by major print publishers for...
(See part 1 here) Universities are unfortunately built on a foundation that incentivizes mediocre publishing and even re-publishing of academic content through a process some have called “publish or perish”. This process incentives academics to give away the products of their work for free, including copy rights, to the most popular academic publishers in order to compete for tenure. This leads towards the centralization of academic publishing, you know 'the means of production'. This environment allows traditionally print academic publishers to harness the power of the digital age whilst maintaining their monopoly over the content and distribution. The results are...
Among the few things that set humans apart from animals, two may have had the largest impact on our growth and technological evolution. One of them is our capacity to form abstractions from our experiences and polish their accuracy by comparing these to new experiences. This allows us to predict future events and thus better adapt to ever changing and complex environments... the scientific method. The other one is our capacity to timelessly store these abstractions and experiences through language. Be it as a painting of a calf on a cave wall, or Charles Darwin’s On the origin of species,...
