My 12th book project, likely to be published sometime during the summer/fall of 2022, thus manuscript below temporarily available online in draft form. It is follow-up to my 10th and 11th books, consequently the cover already designed although slightly modified of the previous (click here for all books)... The following propositions and problems are somewhat brief or concise, followed by poems also short, 8 line complimentary verses....

        To my daughters, sons-in-law and grandchildren, who I love more than they know. It is my hope they someday will read this book when aged enough by human experiences hence mildly or gravely despondent over the human yet quite inhumane experiments, that is, the political and social monstrosities called Government.

        To the following (incomplete list of) influences, who in various decrees marginally or largely shifted my ideological thus moral paradigm(s), facilitating and fostering the conclusions in this book. Consequently in somewhat chronological order; the Taoist and Greek writers, the Apostles and their Gospels and Epistles, the Early Church writers, the theologians and economists of the School of Salamanca, Roger Williams (his book The Bloudy Tenent of Persecution for Cause of Conscience), John Locke, Richard Cantillon, John Stuart Mill, Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, Jean-Baptiste Say, Claude-Frédéric Bastiat (of course the essay The Law as well his complete works), Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Alexander Hamilton (his article No. 84 only) thus the Federalist Papers, then the arguably preferred Anti-Federalist Papers therefore contributors, Patrick Henry (his fiery speech at the Virginia Ratifying Convention), writers and orators like Ohiyesa (Charles Eastman) as well chiefs Red Jacket, Joseph, Luther Standing Bear, Seattle and others (as compiled by numerous historians), Henry David Thoreau, W. Stanley Jevons, Lysander Spooner, Mark Twain (his short story/prose War Prayer) and the American Anti-Imperialist League, Carl Menger, Eugen Böhm von Bawerk, Ludwig von Mises (particularly his books Liberalism and Human Action), F.A. Hayek, Garet Garrett, Albert J. Nock (his book Our Enemy, The State), Frank Chodorov, John T. Flynn, C.S. Lewis (his book Mere Christianity), Leonard Read, Henry Hazlitt (his masterly book Foundations of Morality), Ayn Rand (her book Atlas Shrugged and television interviews), Murray N. Rothbard (his two volume historical work on Economic Thought), Martin Luther King Jr. (his speeches and sermons on nonviolence and peace), John Lennon, Milton Friedman, Francis Schaeffer (his book True Spirituality, most noteworthy the section on covetousness), as well the few (among many) contemporaries per their books, essays, articles, lectures, shows, podcasts, documentaries and interviews like Lew Rockwell, Jeff Deist, Tom Woods, Walter Block, Hans-Herman Hoppe, Jesús Huerta de Soto, Walter E. Williams, Jeffrey Tucker, Rand Paul, Peter Schiff, Gerald Celente, Niall Ferguson, Hernando de Soto Polar, Thomas Sowell and of course Ron Paul (consistently a noninterventionist hence a man of peace).
