Obama wins

With the election of Barack Obama the United States has chosen a path well traveled by. Typically a country that has adopted nanny state policies like we have, such as social security, Medicare and Medicare … that country proceeds even deeper into socialism. No people of any country has ever turned it around at this point.

I thought maybe we would with the election of Mitt Romney. I thought maybe we would be the first in the history of the world to accomplish such a reversal. We are, after all, Americans. We are different.

Thus far that is not the case.

The mechanics of turning this country around is relatively simple. Deregulating, balancing the budget, reducing taxes, bringing back jobs and prosperity can be done almost instantaneously. What stops us from doing it?

Dependency.

It is not the mechanics that make reform difficult. It is the weakening of the individual by becoming dependent upon the government that makes the job nearly impossible. That is the barrier to reform: dependency.

Why the Libertarian Party?

It is theoretically possible to win our freedom in the Republican Party, but it is very highly unlikely; it's not going to happen that way.

The money of the Republican Establishment combined with the ideology of Conservatism makes such a win much more difficult than getting to our goal, and enlightening others to our ideology, through our own libertarian organization.

Man is basically good.

Man is basically good. That is why libertarianism works.

If man is just an animal, then the fascists (conservatives) and socialists (progressives) are right and we need lots of rules and regulations, adopted collectively, that monitor our lives, as no individual can be trusted to govern himself or herself without such forced guidance.
