Have you had it with "politics" and desire to live in a brilliantly better future? Are you curious about what can replace an age-old coercive organization trying to control you and your property, so that everyone can finally be respected?
A dangerous myth perpetuates our political plight in America: The belief that we are free. In fact, scores of unjust laws daily violate our individual rights. Being regulated and taxed to fund governmentally monopolized services, under threats of being fined, arrested, punished, or even killed, necessarily sacrifices our needs for freedom and justice.
In stark contrast we have the American spirit, which is about embracing liberty and realizing opportunities for creativity, win/win trade, and prosperity. Complete Liberty podcast explains not only the sundry ills of statism, but also the untold benefits of systems that respect and enable both freedom and responsibility. Let's leave domination systems in the dustbin of history.

Customer Reviews
Wes, YOU are needed - please get MORE exposure!
This is an excellent podcast. I only wish Wes Bertrand would get out there more NOW because I feel he is the best and most articulate spokesperson for liberty at this time.
One of the best!
I wish Wes lived closer to me so I can introduce him to my sister. The man has heart.
Great source of life-changing information!
If it wasn't for Wes's podcast I probably would not have heard of Nonviolent Communication and my life would be nowhere near as good as it is now. I am grateful for that, as well as for all the other great thinkers (Nathaniel Branden, Alfie Kohn) I first heard about here, and for Wes's own insights and commentary. Thanks!
