Liberty or Bust

Ron Paul 2012 Rear Window Decal

I’ve (re)produced the Ron Paul Revolution design in Adobe Illustrator for large format printing, specifically for large car rear window stickers. The design looks like this. I smoothed out the Love portion to make it easier to reproduce in vinyl.

I reserve the right to say I told you so

prop 100 passed.  I reserve the right to say I told you so regarding:

• this sales tax increase will become permanent
• teachers will still be laid off
• our public schools won’t improve in the next three years
• in three years, the state of AZ will not be in a better financial position

Voters of “Yes” enable government to pilfer your wallet, your freedom, your liberty. Its YOUR OWN FAULT. You deserve all that is coming to you.

Great Post on Stop Signs

http://mises.org/story/3570

As a libertarian, I am not against rules. I even enforce rules… on my property. I don’t let my son play with exposed electrical wires, that is against one of my rules. The above story makes a great statement.

Now, I’m not saying that we don’t need rules in society. But the question of who makes the rules and on what basis becomes supremely important. Will the rule making flow from the matrix of voluntary exchange based on the ethic of serving others through private enterprise? Or will the rules be made and enforced by people wearing guns and bulletproof vests with a license to shock or kill based on minor annoyances?

I’d rather the former than the latter. Guns are only necessary for making others live the way you do, or defending your lifestyle. The first is coercion, the sole business of government, and the second is self defense.

Why I am a libertarian

This blog introduction describes my very reasons for being a libertarian.

Just perfect.

Box Signature

I saw this signature today on Slash Dot…

There are 4 boxes to use in the defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, ammo. Use in that order. Starting now.

Great Places to Give

Because we require our government not to lend a helping hand because it is so awful at it, here are some good places to send some funds…

National Security Letter’s Gag Orders Declared Unconstitutional

A federal appeals court overturned a ruling declaring gag orders associated with the FBI’s national security letters are unconstitutional. This is the first step in a long time towards liberty in this country. Its about time a judge sees the constitution as it is, laws we all must live by, including the president.

Here is the article.

13 Year Old Stoned to Death

for being raped. The BBC has the article. The Islamic court demanded they girl was 23 and had committed adultery. Under Sheria law, a 23 year old adulterist must be stoned. Additionally, a 13 year old girl raped must not. But, if you fudge the numbers, no one is willing to contest because you have automatic weapons and they don’t.

I pose the question, does a society that enforces laws such as these deserve liberty? Especially to have it handed to them via some global babysitter?
