FFF Presents: The 100th Anniversary of the Great State Crime with Sheldon Richman
Channel: Liberty.me
Date: 02/10/2014

100 years ago, World War I began, claiming the lives of 16 million people, including 7 million noncombatants. With so much having been written in the last century, what's left to be said about the "Great War" at this late date? Could the men responsible for the war have wrought anything like the horrors they inflicted had they not controlled a state apparatus — an army, a navy, a compulsory revenue-collection agency, and a bureaucracy to conscript (enslave) the nation's young males? War was never inevitable. It was a product of human agency. Sheldon Richman takes on the Great State Crime only on Liberty.me U!
