If libertarian ideals were implemented, this economy would take off like a rocket!

September 28th, 2011

If libertarian ideals were fully implemented, this economy would take off like a rocket! Libertarians, as I use the term, includes those in the actual Libertarian Party, such as Gary Johnson and others who stand by libertarian principles, such as Ron Paul.

That libertarian reforms would greatly boost the economy is obvious to those with enough intelligence to understand how the economy really works, but not so obvious to those who can’t get it and are brainwashed with liberal or neo-con dogma. More government molestation of business and personal activity is not the answer. Less government is!

  • Libertarians would eliminate all unnecessary regulations on business, thereby allowing business to develop and grow at a much faster pace. For those who can’t “put two and two together”, that means many more jobs, more raises, promotions, more stable careers and pensions.
  • Libertarians would eliminate all unnecessary regulations on personal activity, thereby stimulating demand and a new motivation for life for many people. This translates to more demand for more products and services, creating more jobs and improving the standard of living (as each person would pursue according to their own style – not the right or left style conformity society tries to force us into).
  • Libertarians would dramatically lower taxes, tax complexity and tax tyranny for business, which would be more money companies could use to hire more employees, give raises or even invest in other businesses. We use the term “tax tyranny” to mean excessive bullying by the IRS and state tax agencies that slows business activity and ultimately results in fewer jobs and lower wages.
  • Libertarians would dramatically lower taxes, tax complexity and tax tyranny for individuals, thereby giving people more money to improve their own lives as they see fit, and doubtless this money would better stimulate the economy than how the government would spend (waste) it.
  • Libertarians would have ZERO tolerance for government waste and that means many, many things! No more bail-outs, loans for certain companies, no more government blowing money on alternative energies, studies of risky behavior of homosexuals in Argentine bars, no more paying some old man to get an erection, no more corporate welfare, no more farmer welfare and perhaps even converting individual welfare to private charity (churches, organizations, etc.).
  • Libertarians would greatly reduce government bureaucracy, passing the savings to taxpayers. This would be a significant economic boost on it’s own!
  • Libertarians would relax property regulations, creating a sustained, permanent boost in the real estate industry, translating to more jobs, more freedom and more potential for the poor to afford a home and have some dignity.
  • Libertarians would demand sound money, audit the Federal Reserve and ensure we weren’t effectively printing extra money, like some extremely irresponsible third world country gaining temporary advantage for the government while crushing the people financially.
  • Libertarians would resurrect what it really means to be free, what it really means to be American, invigorating the nation with a new zeal for life and economic success.

And for those who don’t realize, Ron Paul is a libertarian who runs as a Republican as a political strategy, and because the Republican platform is a closer match to the freedoms that matter most (but obviously not a great match at all, nowadays). All freedoms matter, but if the economy collapses (entirely) from lack of economic freedom, nothing else will matter. In addition to assaults on basic freedoms with such hastily written legislation as the Patriot Act, mainstream Republicans have not even done a very good job of standing for the economic freedoms they are supposed too! Consider voting for someone no less libertarian than Ron Paul going forward. Your vote may not count toward a win, but it will count as a statement – a statement that will be harder to ignore as the Republican establishment (and Democrats) hemorrhage more and more votes!
