Edward Townes

Fighting the State
by Edward Townes (libertarian)

About The Author

I am a 22 year old Theoretical Physics student studying at Imperial College in London.  I live in New York City and I have a passion for economics and politics.

About The Column

My political views are classic liberal and I read the Austrian School of economics.  I believe that anarcho-capitalism is the purest form of free society, and that the necessity of the State is a myth perpetuated by the minority who have a vested interest in its existence.
