Here is a tour of the way people have recently employed the term “liberty and prosperity” on the internet.
Delveintothedepths features an open letter from former Presidential candidate Howard Phiilips. Mr. Phillips is drawing attention to the proposal among Canada, the United States, and Mexico to form a North American Union linked together by a massive superhighway.
Finally, the proponents of the [North American Union] and the “NAFTA Superhighway” are counting on their massive wealth and political power, as well as public ignorance and apathy to help them enrich themselves at the expense of our liberty and prosperity.
Nessalu created the below YouTube video, I Voted for PEACE, LIBERTY, and PROSPERITY For All.. Yeah, That’s Right–I Voted For The Good Doctor Paul!, as a look in to one Kentucky voter’s impressions and motivation.
Challenge to America: a Current Assessment of our Republic is a Dr. Ron Paul speech from the House of Representatives floor. Dr. Paul examines the so-called “Third Ways,” which are myriad proposals mixing the liberal and conservative ideologies:
The Third Way, a bipartisan compromise that sounds less confrontational and circumvents the issue of individual liberty, free markets, and production is an alluring, but dangerous, alternative. The harsh reality is that it is difficult to sell the principles of liberty to those who are dependent on government programs. And this includes both the poor beneficiaries as well as the self-serving wealthy elites who know how to benefit from government policies. The authoritarian demagogues are always anxious to play on the needs of people made dependent by a defective political system of government intervention while perpetuating their own power. Anything that can help the people to avoid facing the reality of the shortcomings of the welfare/warfare state is welcomed. Thus our system is destined to perpetuate itself until the immutable laws of economics bring it to a halt at the expense of liberty and prosperity.
