Libertarians have “tremendous power” to roll back big government even without electing anyone, writes Dr. Mary Ruwart on LibertyForAll.net.
As libertarians, we have tremendous power. However, we are so focused on winning elections that we tend to neglect our real strength. We’re frustrated by the “wasted vote syndrome,” but do little to counter it, even though we hold the key in our hands. That key is activism at the local, state and national level. If we have the power to roll back big government, shouldn’t we use it?
Libertarians need to be reminded of this regularly and we should always be thinking in this mode.
This is a good article. I’d like to see more heare from Dr. Ruwart.
BTW, I went to the libertyforall.net site, and I looked for a link to subscribe. Couldn’t find one. Is there a way to do that?
Winning elections is one small part of the Libertarian approach, though properly the key focus of the LP.
This is a really great article
