America is no longer the republic it once stood for. We’ve strayed from sound economics and and social liberties based on the political principles of our founding fathers. Instead of freedom and liberty, we are plagued by big government with excessive welfare, large taxes, economic regulation, infringement on personal liberties and a government which denies the individual the innate right of self-ownership. Our once limited government is well on its way to becoming a welfare and police state. Constantly, the government steps out of its boundaries, violating individual liberties, state’s rights, and the Constitution of the United States.
We can stand for this no more.
The purpose of this site is threefold:
- Firstly, the intent of this site is to inform. Posts will frequently focus on social and economic topics with the intent to inform others of our rights and how they are being violated or destroyed. We will show you everyday examples of how the federal government is intruding on our personal lives. Furthermore, we will include our own theories on the best political philosophies and economic policies our government should adapt, based on the principles of classic liberalism.
- Secondly, The purpose of this site is to share opinions. This blog will be an outlet to share views and discuss them with like-minded people. We welcome all comments, discussions, and criticisms. No one person has all the answers. By sharing opinions and theories, perhaps we can inform one another and learn together by sharing political ideas in a collective effort to move towards political ideals.
- Lastly, the purpose of this website is to promote activism. Hopefully after reading from this blog, we can become more informed and learn more by the sharing of opinions; using what we know and learn, this blog’s intend is to provide tools towards reform. In American society, there are far to many individuals who are politically apathetic. If we can cure this apathy, perhaps political reform and political progress will become more possible.
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.- Preamble, Declaration of Independence, 1776
