Libertarianism as a political philosophy

At the present time, the United States of America is battling for its own survival as a nation. The United States of America is falling not because of undocumented workers but because of the Republicans and Democrats fighting and insulting each other while adding more and more restrictive laws which intrude on the freedoms that we as citizens of this country once had. It is easy for the Republicans, Democrats, and their supporters to dismiss the Libertarians and the concept of limited government and trivialize it but they are doing so at their own risk.

The time has come for the United States of America to embark on a radical course of a non violent revolution in which the Republicans and Democrats with their warmongering, hateful, and racist ways are voted out of power in favour of a Libertarian Government which will limit government and reduce duplication. The United States Mainstream Media has made the mistake of ignoring Libertarians such as George Phillies and Ron Paul at their own peril. For the United States of America to undergo this radical course of a non violent revolution of the Libertarian Party, it must think and question the involvement of the United States of America in wasteful international adventures such as the Middle East and Korea. The United States of America has to think about its commitment to international organizations such as the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund. The United States of America has to think what has one hundred and fifty years of Republican and Democratic Monopoly wrought on the nation [which is absolutely nothing].

The United States of America was founded on the notion that all were created equal yet we stratify people who are not like us. We should accept people for what they are and make attempts to separate the State from Church, Health, Education, Business, and the Bedroom. The State must govern. The State must reduce itself or privatize itself and get on with the business of functioning like any Private Corporation. This also includes selling the flag of the United States of America and the National Anthem to those who want to salute it. Whether there are people who like this concept or not, remember this is the true meaning of what is the Free Market.

We, the people of the United States of America in order to form a more perfect union must adhere to the Constitution and swear on the Constitution to protect the country. We must also introduce term limits to all Federal Functionaries in Washington DC including Senators, Congress, the House of Representatives, and the Supreme Court. We must also return to the Gold and Silver Standard and abolish the institutions such as The Federal Reserve [with its worthless paper money] and the Internal Revenue Service [with its arbitrary taxes]. The United States of America can easily receive revenue from tourism or from the coffers of the Republican and Democratic Party.

We the people of the United States of America in order to form a more perfect union must adopt Libertarian Policies such as Live and Let Live unless damage is done to us, more responsibility for ones actions, and no attempt to rescue people who have lost their homes secondary to decisions made in the refinancing of a house. We must also learn how to defend ourselves, practice preventive medicine [so as not to exhaust an overburdened health care system], abolish Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

I hope one day to see a United States of America under the Libertarian Party which is the true successor of the signers of the Declaration of Independence and of the United States Constitution of 1787.
