Help Us Lead America to Freedom

• https://www.fff.org, by Jacob G. Hornberger

I recently delivered presentations at the annual PorcFest festival in New Hampshire and FreedomFest conference in Las Vegas. At FreedomFest, I encountered a man who said to me, "Jacob, I would like you to know that your work at FFF has altered my life forever in the direction of liberty. Thank you very much for your work."

That's what we are all about here at FFF — placing the principled, uncompromising case for libertarianism into the marketplace of ideas, with the aim of finding the critical mass of people who understand that the way to secure a genuinely free society is the dismantling of, not the reform of, infringements on liberty.

It is imperative that we advocates of liberty keep something important in mind: No matter who is elected president, we will still be living our lives as serfs, existing for no purpose other than to serve the regulatory state, welfare state, and warfare state. That's because the problem we face is a systemic one, not one that involves getting "better" people into public office.

To get our nation back on the right track, we need a revolutionary change in our political-economic system. We need to abandon our current system of statism and restore a system based on individual liberty, free markets, private charity, and a limited-government republic.

Throughout history, great movements have been led by infinitesimally small minorities of people. It is this remnant of liberty adherents that is the light that is shining through the darkness of statism that has enveloped our nation. It is this remnant who can and will lead our nation to the highest reaches of freedom, peace, prosperity, and harmony that mankind has ever seen.

Hornberger isn't listing anything practical that anybody can use. Why not tell us that we live in a Constitutional Republic, and not a Democracy, so that people start to think about what they believe the government is. He could even explain the difference in easy-to-understand language, if he knows the difference. | The whole thing is about private property of the people. The word "acceptance" is a legal word. If you have property that you own, 'they' can call it what they want. But that isn't what it is. It is what YOU as sole owner call it: "private property." You don't have to accept what they call it. | "Persons" in the 4th Amendment is plural. You are a man or woman. If it isn't a man or woman, it isn't you. If it is a person without your signature on it, it isn't one of your persons. 'They' are simply trying to sell you into joining them in their masquerade, often in court. You don't have to accept (acceptance). Find out how.
