Libertarian Chris Delamo Goes Homeless for a Week - Page 1 - News - Miami - Miami New Times - Michael E. Miller:
May 30, 2013 - "Chris Delamo ... has decided to take to the mean streets of Miami for a week to see what it's really like to be homeless. He's taking nothing but the clothes on his back — oh, and his $800 camera, tripod, and laptop computer....
"Delamo says he's always been 'pretty much a normal guy who for some reason always had a greater tendency to question social norms.' The G. Holmes Braddock Senior High School grad ... dropped out and founded a blog called Red Pill Philosophy (motto: 'One pill a day keeps the falsehoods at bay'). Much of the website is devoted to 'voluntaryism,' which Delamo describes as the belief that 'nobody should ever be forced to do anything against their will.'
He also began making short man-on-the-street videos in which he challenges passersby to debate political philosophy. In one clip from the last Election Day, Delamo points a plastic revolver at voters and asks them how taxation is any different from armed robbery. 'The government should not have the right to point a gun to our heads and force us to give up our money,' he says."
