My Platform

After looking over the other candidates, I’ve decided to run for president. Considering I’m under-aged, I guess I won’t get many votes. Oh, well, it’s just something to do, I guess. Below is my platform. I’ll be updating it as I think of more issues to add and discuss. Disagree with any of it? I’m open minded — let’s discuss it.

The Purpose of the State

The state is but a business of persons organized to unleash force upon others. It can be used for either good or bad — usually bad. The political business has no moral abilities except those abilities which the individual has, for the political business is, at root, a collection of individuals.

Government should not violate the negative rights of the people, and should use all tax monies to the general cause of protecting and securing the negative rights of the people. The negative rights that exist are life, liberty and property.

Political force for anything not related to securing the negative rights of life, liberty and property are of a tyrannical and dishonorable nature, and ought to be immediately ended.

    Hey, thanks for stopping by my blog! You have a great site yourself.

    I considered running for president as well, but then I realized that:

    1. I’m too young.
    2. I would have to learn to hate myself.

    Good for you, Shaun. Don’t lighten up and get “politically correct,” ok? :-) lol

    On the immigration issue, I would like for you to clarify what you mean by “open boarders.” Do you believe there should be no naturalization service (aka: citizenship is non-existent)? Or do you believe that their should still be some tests applied? Just, they would be more reasonable. :-)
