So the theme of the thread seems to be are you against the NDAA or are you "for" the BLM Protesters, so I'll just chime in. I think it could be a strategically wise decision to demagogue the NDAA issue over this thing in Portland, even if you hate the BLM movement, which I do. BLM is not our...

I have kind of been out of the liberty loop since 2016. Lately I'm not hearing much out of Rand Paul about the Fed. Or Massie or Amash. Everything seems to be about Trump/Impeachment. Or am I just not following close enough? When is the last time there was movement on audit the Fed? What...

I used to pay attention closely to all of this stuff, but somewhere along the way I lost track of all of the back and forth over this Russian hacking the election thing, because there's been so many falsehoods and innuendo, but I imagine some stuff might be true. Did they ever prove that the...

Yeah but Noah also tried to point out that crony socialism isnt true socialism, so it kind of is a wash

I like what Amash is doing and I'm glad Massie and Rand are staying toward the right. I think testing a left-appealing libertarian position is a good strategy, and Amash is definitely grabbing media attention which is good. If he runs for president, I want him to run in the republican primary...

That sounds like central planning to me. Sell the federal land and let the market decide what gets cut down

What? No, they gotta keep him alive and spread amazing stories about him to create an excuse for another invasion somewhere

I think Tulsi is definitely the democrat you want to win the nomination on that side. I see why some people don't like her at all, but who else on the democrat side would you prefer? She's got an edge on every single on of them. Then, if it comes down to Trump v Tulsi, Trump isn't that great...

You shouldn't need term limits in a local election. It shouldn't matter as much. The real solution is electing US Senators through the state legislatures rather than by popular vote. And on the House side, you want to expand the house until the ratio of constituents to reps is around 30,000...

Yeah, but I am not for a system where only the left gets to deny services to people they don't like, and everyone else has to serve everyone else. I would sooner have a system where everybody had to serve everybody than the system mentioned above. Of course I would as you say definitely prefer...

Awesome, I got 5. Now the petition will be publicly visible on the site. Any more signatures definitely appreciated

Why don't you do what I did in another thread. Start a petition on Change.org. Share the petition with locals that you know and see if you can make it catch on. Another idea? Find out who your local state rep is and shoot him an email. My state rep is very accessible, because state reps...

^ This doesn't consider the primaries, where the first states to vote carry a lot of weight in eliminating certain candidates. Ultimately, if the Federal government was not so overly powerful, far beyond what was intended, it wouldn't matter so much who was president

JC, what state? Advice? If it is going to cost $300 per year, then don't do anything that will cost, whether due to expenditure or missed opportunity to work, that will cost more than $299.99 per year for as many years as you expect to live

C'mon guys. 227 thread views and two signatures? To me, deregulating the practice of law so lay people can provide services is huge. Think about the thought control the government imposes on lawyers by forcing them through what are essentially government schools before they can practice, and...
