I believe that each human being as an individual, and not as part of a group, possesses natural unalienable rights, innate to our very human nature, and that no government or authority force gives these rights to them.
I hold these truths to be self-evident:
That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
“No man has a natural right to commit aggression on the equal rights of another, and this is all from which the laws ought to restrain him.” —Thomas Jefferson
I believe that each person owns his own life and property, and that each person has the right to live his own life in any way he chooses as long as he respects the equal rights of others.
I believe that respect for individual rights is the essential precondition for a free and prosperous world; that force and fraud must be banished from human relationships; and only through freedom can peace and prosperity be realized.
I defend the natural God given rights of each person to life, liberty, and property.
I believe that there is no rational alternative to free markets, limited government, and individual liberty.
I call for: the abolishment of confiscatory taxes and government spending, free trade, deregulation, competition in education, free speech, privacy, an end to censorship, and the elimination of government intervention in the lives of its citizens.
