Libertarianism thriving on the state level?

[brandon]

Libertarians have lost some of the national spotlight recently, but in my state individual rights seem so be thriving.

So far in 2010's PA has legalized:

• Beer and wine sales in grocery stores
• wine delivery
• Medical marijuana
• Casinos
• fireworks
• Working towards elimination of property tax.

Next stop, eliminating state income tax?

If you are able to get rid of property tax , I would be interested in the details of the replacement taxes used in its place .

Were the beer & liquor stores state ran before ? I find it interesting there were not already casinos . Here the state likes the tax revenues they get from the suckers that pay the houses cut .

Yes it is much easier to affect change on the state / local level. Honestly trying to reform the federal government is a waste of time. But one can move mountains locally if they are willing to put in the effort.

You have a solid guy, Mike Folmer, leading the charge in your state. He is a good model on gaining a lot of influence and bringing liberty values mainstream.
