Publisher's summary

How should society be organized? Most of us would point to the necessity of a traditionally structured government comprising trustworthy elected representatives who watch over the masses almost like responsible parents. However, throughout history, we’ve seen such governments abuse their power to enact incalculable damage. In the most extreme cases, governments have been responsible for brainwashing, slavery, and genocide; and in more subtle instances, civil liberties are slowly eroded. Democracies aren’t immune from these dangers, either.

In An End to Upside Down Liberty, award-winning author Mark Gober explains why the institution of government - a monopolistic body with which citizens have no explicit contractual relationship - is inherently hazardous to our freedom. He explores an alternative governing framework that stresses the importance of private-property rights and voluntary exchanges and examines the potential to privatize the government’s poorly managed public sector. But unlike most political and economic discussions, Gober goes a step further by introducing metaphysics into the mix. He draws from the extensive body of scientific evidence covered in his two previous books - including near-death-experience research - to explore the nature of reality, consciousness, and why we exist. This comprehensive approach can be used to steer humanity’s future away from enslavement…and toward liberty. The stakes are high, and the message is urgent. You won’t look at the world the same way after listening to this book.

Mind blowing concept!

After reading and understanding the concept of voluntaryism you’ll wonder how we ever created such a broken system in the first place. Be warned, the ideas in this book will infect your consciousness and you’ll never look at politics, government, or policy in the same way again. This reality can not happen fast enough!

Life Changing

Thank you Mark for your extraordinary insight, research, and ability to synthesize this information. I don’t think I would have discovered it without you. I’m incredibly grateful.

The spiritual side of this hypothesis cannot be underestimated

I found a lot of value in the book and think I’ll be cogitating over bits and pieces of this one for a while. Agree so much on the spiritual side of things. However, I’m still encountering a lot of inner skepticism in visualizing a transition to volunteerism under large scale. That is, a transition over a few generations not involving a total collapse under present systems that perhaps reorganizes semi organically as volunteerism. These is so much opportunity for forces we may “old school” call Evil to completely take over volunteerism (ones not also somehow defended against these sorts of attacks from within and without).

Thank you for creating and sharing the book!

great point to was it is vs what we want it to be

best with an open mind and willing to think of a new approach to what government is vs what we think it is by definition
