We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Samizdata slogan of the day

I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered. My life is my own.
– Number Six (Patrick McGoohan) in classic TV show The Prisoner

    I like this one even better:

    To be governed is to be watched, inspected, directed, indoctrinated, numbered, estimated, regulated, commanded, controlled, law-driven, preached at, spied upon, censored, checked, valued, enrolled, by creatures who have neither the right, nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so.
    —Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

    What a great series The Prisoner was! I wish I could watch it again.
