Youtube,
I would highly suggest to make your channel about doing things that you actually enjoy rather than looking to appease your fans. In my opinion the channels that are not centered around the uploader's own interests; whether they be philosophy, economics, or gaming, the content comes off flat and not nearly as interesting to watch.

Who Runs America?
Yes all good points. Another important distinction is that the United States has nearly %50 of it's population dependent on government assistance. “When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic.” - Benjamin Franklin

Who Runs America?
Bankers run the world through the force and coercion of government legislature. Division of the people is only a tactic used to keep people fighting amongst themselves in the same manner that elections in the United States are designed to give people the illusion of choice. You have no choice. You get only two options of candidates that have been preselected by lobbyists and special interest groups.

Ukraine
Both the United States and Russia are to blame. These countries are positioning over power in the Ukraine and the biggest casualty of this whole conflict, as already has been mentioned, is the Ukrainian people. Both of these countries have been actively paying protestors for either side (United States1 and 2)(Russia), and the whole fiasco is a prime example of how foreign interventionalism doesn't work. The sad thing to me is that the Ukrainian people are basically fighting over whether they want to be ruled by the EU, where the cost of corruption in the EU this past year was the same size as the Ukraine's entire economy, or the Russians who are for the most part a corrupt dictatorship that has a long history of horribly treating the Ukrainian people and is reacting to NATO's attempts of isolation by attempting to regain control of Ukraine. I hope that one day the Ukrainian people will not feel the need to be ruled by outside governments, but instead realize they can be self-governing. Outside countries would be wise to not interfere and let the country have their revolution the way they'd like it to be. Russia and the US have no right to interfere.

The Truth About Slavery
Ah yes I see what you are saying now. Well certainly the state is not all to blame, but the points that this person makes to me are very compelling examples about how the state made the problem worse.

The Truth About Slavery
Which type of human trafficking are you referring to? I am not terribly well-read on this topic, but from what I do know there are a number of different categories of human trafficking that includes many times voluntary behavior such as prostitution; which I believe is within the rights of an individual to procure a profit for their sexual labor as long as it is voluntary. Does human trafficking include illegal immigration? When I go into Google it seems there is a number of different views about what falls into the category.

The Truth About Slavery
Did you check the description box where he lists the works cited? His point about states making it illegal for US slaveholders to voluntarily free their slaves as well as forcing conscription of slave hunters both would never occur in the free market. Not to mention that in an unhampered economy you have ownership of not only the products that you produce from your own labor, but also ownership of your labor.

The Truth About Slavery
Yes same here. The picture is really incomplete without an understanding of the socioeconomic pressures being applied by the state. Many of the statistics he were talking about were quite shocking to me! Edit: with -> without
