Thanks for the response Apollonia, lots of stuff for me to chew on. Violent Acres is awesome; I'd almost forgotten about that site.

The thing is, I don't feel at all depressed. I feel like I will do whatever it takes to eliminate the state with no compromises, and very quickly. Even when friends look at me like I'm nuts, it doesn't deter me. My family largely used to think I'm nuts, but I guess repeat exposure to me has gotten them to agree with my ideas. It helps me see that the same kind of thing can work on the world, but I've got to figure out how to show people libertarianism on a mass scale. I agree with the article I cited though that nearly every person in the world is a victim of the state. Perhaps the victim in this article and the victim as in "oh, my life sucks" are two different uses of the word.

In case anyone is wondering, I've long since identified my purpose in life to make sure that the state goes away permanently and absolutely. "Eliminating the state" means no more state at all. I don't want to lower taxes, argue endlessly about abortion, or even go with Ron Paul's ideas (though I appreciate how he introduced many people to libertarianism) . I want to make the USA a non entity.

I'm wondering exactly what intentions I would have to release to facilitate the elimination of the state, and help me find more opportunities to help end the state. Exactly what beliefs and intentions would be helpful for me? I'm going to think about this long and hard on my own, but would appreciate any more advice.Right now, I'm not up to arguing over politics, so please leave that to the world affairs forum.

Thanks.

EDIT: I spent a while writing this post, and didn't see your reply, Ecce Homo. I'll reply to it later.
