Libertarian Spirit Shared By Everyone

"Our spirit is free and wants for us outer conditions of freedom (political liberty) so it can guide us to unimaginable prosperity and well-being." That's the libertarian message that sells. That's the libertarian message that resonates deep inside of people. That's the libertarian message that wins elections. But why would libertarians want to win elections? Because those who win elections have the power to either reduce people's political liberty [which libertarians don't want] or increase people's political liberty [which libertarians do want]. Majority rule is only tyranny of the majority if the majority votes to reduce freedom. If a majority votes to increase freedom ... that's not tyranny. If a majority voted for Ron Paul, tyranny wouldn't gain ground ... liberty would gain. But why are libertarians always losing elections? It can't be because people want more tyranny. The vast majority of people are at least somewhat in to...

Anyone reading the novel Full Black by New York Times #1 bestselling novelist Brad Thor might be tempted to say, "This author is a libertarian!" Early in the novel a documentary film producer describes what his investigation has turned up: "What we discovered was that beginning in the 1940s, radical elements inside the United States had recognized that there were these huge piles of money just sitting inside multiple large foundations and endowments all across the country. These big government collectivists, globalists, socialists and communists realized that if they could get into positions of power, say on the boards of directors at the foundations or the endowments, they could steer the money any way they wanted. And that is exactly what they did." In Full Black the super rich fascist Utopian globalist whose agenda is to bring America to it's knees so a new world order can arise from the ashes is not named George Soros, but James Standing. "On ...

The Libertarian Party could well be considering folding and dropping out of the game. Why? Because the Republican Party is being transformed by Ron Paul's rEVOLutionaries and will carry the banner of liberty for a long time to come. "But Ron Paul is pretty old. This is his last run." No matter. The future belongs to Republicans like Rand Paul and Justin Amash. And to other champions of liberty who are willing to run as Republicans. And that's a future that favors you . Heading into the South Carolina GOP Primary there have been 20 televised debates and untold national news stories in which Ron Paul has had an opportunity to voice libertarian ideas ... more exposure of libertarian ideas in 6 months than the Libertarian Party was able to achieve in 40 years. In state after state, Ron Paul has been polling on average about 20% of Republican voters with an every day unstoppable mushrooming of exposure, enthusiasm ... and acceptance. If an Obama dictatorship a...

'Tis the season to be jolly ... libertarians! It now appears Ron Paul will place first in the Iowa Caucuses held on the night of January 3rd. Newt Gingrich will place second. Mitt Romney will place third. Rick Perry will place fourth. Ron Paul's Iowa victory doesn't provide many delegates to the Republican National Convention, but it does have enormous impact on the American national dialogue. On the one hand, the movement behind Ron Paul appears somewhat old-line conservative, but on the other hand it contains revolutionary elements. The American War of Independence and establishment of the United States was a wonderful advance in mankind's evolution toward non-coercive political infrastructure. But obviously the American experiment did not finish the job. Mankind still has a way to go to establish full political liberty once and for all time. The American Founders, for all their genius, were nonetheless limited to the perceptions of their day. Like sci...

Victor Hugo once famously wrote you cannot resist an idea whose time has come. Obviously liberal-progressives (properly labeled "fascist socialists") resist libertarian ideas even beyond paranoia, as if the world would utterly burn up in flames if men and women were free to determine their own lives. Yet the impulse to liberty is ever-present in men and women, and is powerfully promoted by the natural energies of the universe. Therefore, the last 150 years of Marxist thought has been answered in the last 50 years or so by libertarian ideas gaining ever more wide-spread prominence. So what is the next idea whose time has come? It can't be political success in any current system because current systems depend on a desire to triumph over others, and the desire to triumph over others is antithetical to the libertarian impulse. The next progress for libertarians may come from a new concept called "Rent-a-Government." Socialism has run it's course. Gov...
