Today in Libertarian History

On this date, the Ides of March, in 44BC, Brutus struck a blow for the libertarian cause. He cut down the dictator Julius Caesar and attempted to campaign for the election of Harry Browne. After an electoral defeat, Brutus fled to the east, but was denied passage through Turkey and was eventually defeated by Caesar's adopted son, Augustus, who then proceeded to establish a world power based on arrogance and conceit, which the French are today trying to emulate (sans the military power).
