Candidates, don’t drop out!

from Libertarian Party LP – Monday Message: Candidates, don’t drop out! August 16, 2010

… libertarian voters need Libertarian Party candidates to vote for. Win or lose, every vote for a Libertarian candidate sends the right message.

As Pat Dixon, Chair of the Libertarian Party of Texas recently wrote, “November will soon be upon us. I do not promise overnight success, but I do expect significant growth that will alarm our opponents, grow our influence, attract more support and investment, and influence policy. That will only happen if we remain on the ballot. Without candidates on the ballot, we don’t have a product to offer to the voters. Don’t fall for the promises of pandering politicians.”

Libertarians: best friends of small business

From Liberator Online August 5, 2010

Libertarians are the best friends of small business.
We are the ones who want to eliminate the crushing tax and regulatory burdens the government has placed on small businesses. Libertarians want to level the playing field for small businesses, by eliminating subsidies and regulations that hurt small businesses by giving big businesses unfair advantages.

A recent survey conducted by the National Federation of Independent Businesses asked small business owners to identify the biggest problems they face. Twenty-two percent of respondents said the single most important problem facing small businesses was “Taxes.” Another thirteen percent said “Government Regulations and Red Tape.” As the Cato Institute pointed out, both of these are direct manifestations of Big Government. Combined, they add up to 35% — making Big Government the biggest problem small businesses say they face today.

Only libertarians are serious about addressing these problems.

5. A sound Money system

quoting David Nolan – The Essence of Liberty One of the “indispensable five” — the points of no compromise for libertarians

A SOUND MONEY SYSTEM

The fifth and final key test of anyone’s claim to being a libertarian is their support for an honest money system; i.e. one where the currency is backed by something of true value (usually gold or silver). Fiat money — money with no backing, whose acceptance is mandated by the State — is simply legalized counterfeiting and is one of the keys to expanding government power.
