Important question for action-taking libertarians who know the State won’t solve the problems it’s created...

What’s the biggest difference between people who build multiple successful businesses, profit from cryptocurrencies, live self-sufficiently, and avoid paying taxes without worrying about who’s president or what the Fed does...

...and those who keep voting, keep protesting, and keep getting screwed over by the government?

If you guessed they live off-grid in a forest, you’d be wrong.

If you guessed they don’t live in America, you’d still be wrong.

And if you guessed…

...they’re well-connected in Washington.

...they’re working jobs I could never have.

...or they’re smarter than me, they’re richer than me, or they’re luckier than me…

You’d be dead wrong.

Because here’s the deal…

Understanding Liberty Isn’t Enough to Grow Your Wealth, Weaken the State, and Change the World (You’re Missing Something Critical)

We libertarians are too smart for our own good.

We’re hyper-focused on pointing out the roots of the problems in society (State intervention), on having the perfect arguments (for Twitter debates and family get togethers), and on being the smartest ones in the room.

In short:

We’ve become our worst enemies...intellectual eggheads.

But here’s the real, personal tragedy:

We’ve gotten so good at identifying the problem, we’ve forgotten how to create a solution.

Now don’t get us wrong, educating yourself is one of the most important pro-freedom actions you can take.

Same with telling people the truth.

And we don’t begrudge anyone who votes. As far as we’re concerned, voting is a form of self-defense against a worse oppressor (since we’re all slaves on a tax farm anyway).

But at some point, you have to ask yourself…

Will reading Rothbard help you feed your family?

Will shutting down your socialist Facebook friends help you secure a prosperous financial future?

Will listening to libertarian podcasters allow you to build a successful business?

And will any of this stop the State in any meaningful sense?

No...they won’t.

While you’re busy blogging about Austrian economics, the bombs keep dropping, the prisons keep swelling, and the collectivists continue marching onward.

Because here’s the hard-to-swallow reality…

Most people don’t want to hear the truth.

They won’t listen to your well-reasoned arguments.

They will deny evidence, facts, and logic.

And all that time spent learning liberty will be wasted.

Unless…

Instead of shouting the truth at people…

You show them the truth.

And instead of shouting into a social media void…

You become a better provider for your family, grow your bank (and crypto accounts), and dissolve the government indirectly.

The (In)Direct Path to Freedom and Wealth

99% of people didn’t know about Bitcoin until 2017.

Now the financial news networks cover it every day!

That didn’t happen because a majority of Americans read Satoshi Nakamoto’s white paper.

It happened because liberty-minded individuals quietly adopted the technology, started voluntarily buying and trading with it underground, and “normies” eventually caught on and started using it.

No direct political action needed. Just plain ol’ human action in the market.

That’s just one example of the “secret” to undermining the State’s power and creating new economic opportunities for yourself.

There’s a word for this “secret” and we’ll tell you what it is and how libertarians like you can use it to fight the State and get rich at the same time.

But, before we do, you’ll need to dramatically shift your thinking about achieving liberty…

4 Liberating Truths You MUST Awaken to Immediately if You Want to Live Independently and Become Wealthy Outside of the Rigged Political System

Myth #1: To Change Government, You Need to Vote the Right Guy into Office

Donald Trump was supposed to drain the swamp.

Plenty of libertarians voted for him.

To be fair, Hillary Clinton seemed much, much worse.

But has Donald Trump actually “drained the swamp”?

Not really.

He ditched some regulations and cut some taxes.

But he still filled his cabinet with ex-Goldman Sachs guys like Obama did.

He said “They” lied us into the Iraq War.

But we’re still in Afghanistan and Iraq fighting a never-ending war on terror.

And even if you like Donald Trump and think he’s giving it his best shot…

With a deep state as powerful and large as the one we have right now, do you really think a president can change anything?

Any president would be severely compromised.

To put it bluntly, “voting the right guy into office” will NOT dismantle the powers-that-shouldn’t-be.

Myth #2: Participating in the Political Process is the Only Way to Change Politics

This is gonna sting, but…

How long was Ron Paul in Congress?

A total of 13 terms?

He was the most libertarian congressman we’ve seen in a century.

But was he successful in scaling back the State?

Well, he voted against the Iraq War.

But guess what?

George Bush invaded Iraq anyway.

He voted no against the stimulus package to bail out the banks in 2009.

But guess what?

Obama bailed out those banks anyway.

Ron Paul endlessly campaigned to audit the Fed.

But guess what?

The Fed still hasn’t been audited (and probably never will be).

If even the most radical libertarian can’t change the government from the inside...it’s a waste of time for you, too.

Myth #3: Changing America Requires a 1776-Style Revolution

The American Revolution of 1776 sparked the greatest experiment in free markets and limited government the world had ever seen…

You know what we have to show for it 240+ years later?

The largest Government in the history of mankind.

This beastly leviathan has obliterated your rights, liberties, and wealth in countless ways.

And the document that gave it life, the Constitution, has done very little to stop its growth.

There’s the Federal Reserve, the most influential central bank in the world, which has helped cause every major boom and bust cycle since the Great Depression.

It’s destroyed the value of our money.

If you bought an item worth $20 in 1913 - when the Federal Reserve was founded - that same item would cost $509.17 today.

That’s a cumulative inflation rate of 2445.3%.

Then there’s the big 3 wars:

• War on drugs - resulting in the highest incarceration rate in the world and human suffering on an immeasurable scale.
• War on privacy - resulting in the creation of a Stasi-style surveillance state where everything is tracked, traced, and databased.
• War on terror - resulting in a domestic police state and perpetual foreign wars with countless human rights violations.

So while the American Revolution was valiant, it still failed completely to protect us from the State.

Another bloody revolution won’t help.

Myth #4: If You Can’t Change Politics, You Might as Well Drop Out and Become an Off-Grid Prepper

We’ve got nothing against off-grid preppers. For some people, this is a good life.

But it’s an option chosen by 1 of 2 people:

1. True believers who know how to prep and live off-grid (and love it).
2. Cynical, depressed, and downtrodden folks who’ve been fighting a losing battle for too long and want to give up the fight.

If you’re reading this, and you believe this myth, you probably fit into the second category.

We don’t blame you.

In today’s cultural, political, and economic climate, it’s hard to get anything you want as a freedom-lover.

Investing in the stock market is often too risky and volatile.

The Fed has all but destroyed a once-prosperous housing market.

Interventions in the economy and arbitrary regulations stifle entrepreneurship.

And the list goes on and on.

Living free seems to be a long-lost pipe dream.

It’s tempting to throw in the towel, pack up your valuables, and watch the world burn from a remote spot in the mountains.

But all is not lost...

The “Secret” to Fighting the State And Getting Rich at the Same Time

If revolutions, politics, voting, education, and returning to nature won’t stop the State…

What will?

One word coined in the ‘70s by radical libertarian theorist Samuel Edward Konkin III:

Agorism.

"Agorism is the consistent integration of libertarian theory with counter-economic practice." Samuel E Konkin III

The peaceful economic exchange of goods and services outside of the State’s control.

Often called “counter-economics”  - black and grey markets - because you ignore the State’s laws, regulations, and restrictions in commerce.

In other words, you’re buying and selling what you want, how you want, with whomever you want, any time you want WITHOUT government approval.

Does it work?

Oh yeah.

Why do you think Marijuana is fully legal in 9 states and medically legal in another 30 states?

Because growers, dealers, and consumers used it illegally until it reached a cultural tipping point and government couldn’t ignore it any longer (and they knew they couldn’t stop it).

Marijuana moved from the black and grey markets into the white market.

That’s Agorism.

What were young people in Soviet Russia doing to undermine the State’s power? Getting high, listening to rock ‘n roll, and smuggling in American denim jeans.

They wanted the fruits of capitalism instead of the waste of communism. They realized the State wouldn’t give them what they wanted (and needed) so they got it themselves.

Agorism, baby.

A lot of states proposed and passed new gun control measures in the wake of shootings like Parkland. It would seem to regular people that the 2nd Amendment is in trouble.

Nope. You can now 3D print guns or use a CNC mill to make most of the parts of an AR-15 in your own garage.

Agorism for the win again.

"Using political means to achieve free-market ends is self-destructive and self-defeating." Samuel E Konkin III

Each of these examples of Agorism shows you 3 things:

1. You CAN take your power back from the State.
2. You CAN help create a freer world.
3. And you CAN make money doing it.

We’re about to share with you HOW you can put Agorism into action.

• How to do business in all markets.
• How to protect your wealth from taxation.
• How (and what) to invest your money in for maximum returns and minimum risk.
• How to use “off-grid technology” to save energy (and money) while living on the grid.
• How to build a network of Agorists you can trade with.

And how to slowly dissolve the State while you do it.

These outcomes are within your reach.

They don’t require any special skills or specific knowledge.

But they DO require a step-by-step approach...

A guide that walks you through the strategies, systems, and tools that are working RIGHT NOW and how to use them immediately.

A roadmap you can access instantly for navigating around the government and charting a course for financial and personal freedom.

Introducing…

“I am very impressed. That isn’t easy to do. We live in a world where in many ways content is produced in such quantity to get someone to pay for it requires something special. I think Vin and his team have nailed it in that regard. It will give subscribers an edge in changing markets.”

Jack Spirko, host of TheSurvivalPodcast.com

The only Agorist newsletter in the world where each issue delivers 50+ pages  of highly actionable strategies, guides, and tools for building your wealth, independence, and a free society outside of the rigged political system

Every month, you’ll receive an issue of the Counter Markets Newsletter that contains:

• A step-by-step approach for living, working, and playing on your own terms without asking permission from the State.
• Strategies for investing in cryptocurrencies, gold, and silver for long-term financial gains.

Who Are We to Tell You How to Get Rich and Starve the State?

We’re self-made libertarian entrepreneurs who live and breathe Agorism.

We’ve built, bootstrapped, and grown multiple online and offline businesses for many years ranging from alternative media and advertising to wealth management and cryptocurrency solutions, and self-sufficiency.

We got involved with Bitcoin in 2011 as investors, miners, merchants, promoters, and developers. In 2018, our team founded CoinText, a VC-funded SMS cryptocurrency service to send money to anyone with a mobile phone number or crypto wallet.

What drives us to do what we do?

Hate for Violent Aggression and Love for Freedom. Same as you.

We tried for too long to change things that were completely out of our control.

Most libertarians do.

And what happens?

The national debt continues climbing. Social Security and Medicaid are still going insolvent.

The police state grows larger. And the war drums continue beating.

Not to mention our bank accounts shrink, our assets dwindle, and our financial future becomes grim.

We realized resistance was futile...IF we were trying to change the system politically.

So instead of fighting the State directly, on their terms, playing their games…

We decided to focus on changing all the things in our control: our actions, investments, networks, businesses, skills, and communities.

We decided to fight economically.

That’s how we found true freedom.

The Counter Markets Newsletter is the hard-won result of experimenting, failing, and learning how to live completely free.

We’ve been arrested.

We’ve lost money.

We’ve missed opportunities.

But slowly…

We figured out how to avoid the regulators.

How to avoid taxes.

How to profit from simple investments.

How to predict and capitalize on market trends.

How to operate urban gardens and 3D printers.

How to start, run, grow, and sell successful businesses.

And we put it all in the Counter Markets Newsletter.

Now is your chance to stop thinking about liberty...and start practicing it.

Stop letting the State dictate your life...and live on your own terms.

Stop reading about great freedom pioneers of the past...and be one.

The State doesn’t care what you know, what you read, what you watch, or what you think.

It cares about what you ultimately DO.

The one thing it fears the most is being irrelevant.

It fears the day that people stop listening to its arbitrary demands.

Frankly, it’s afraid of being ignored.

And the day you can ignore the State is the day you become truly free.

But if you don’t…

You stay trapped playing the State’s rigged game.

As long as you’re doing that…

You’re not free at all.

So you can remain a tax slave, content with “fighting” the State through politics (and never make an ounce of difference in your life or the world)...

Or you can choose to participate in CREATING freedom in real-time, laying a foundation for a free society that your kids and their kids can enjoy all while securing your wealth here and now by fighting the State through counter-economics…
