"Libertarianism is appealing to everyone, because at the end of the day libertarianism is really just an appeal to who you want to be, and everyone can appeal to their own sense of self. The question always is people's fear of each other. People have no problem with the freedom to be themselves. They're scared of what happens when other people are themselves, and how that will effect them. That's why the libertarian message is one of hope and tolerance, because in order to have a world where we can let each other be free, we can't be scared of each other. That's a very different conversation than the other parties are having, which is why the Libertarian Party is a unique vehicle, the only vehicle that can change the conversation, reduce fear and polarization, and create a world where we can just let each other be." -Alex Merced #amliberty

The most important tools you have for changing how people think and behave are metaphors and your example. Metaphors often internally control how we interpret the world around us, and people emulate those they respect, admire and even envy. #advice #amliberty

I want a world where we exchange ideas, goods and services freely with each other. Where we relish in the relationships we develop with each other more and judge the relationship and lives of others less. Where knowledge accumulates rapidly from our choices. Freedom. #amliberty

Re: Voting Libertarian The odds may be high, but if things go my way, even a little, at least there will be genuine substantive change versus merely a change in tone, rhetoric and in whose cronies get political favors. #amliberty

To the extent anyone promotes non-violence, voluntarism and peace in our everyday interactions, they are my ally. To the extent they promote violence, war and theft they will find in me a loud antagonist. Why, because I’m a Libertarian. #amliberty.

Regime change, prohibition, and closed trade are policies that have and continue to contribute to hostilities between nations and on borders. We ignore fixing these policies at our own peril. #PeaceTradeTravel #AmLiberty

Most people believe people just behave the way they behave so they must be controlled and punished when out of line. Libertarians understand people respond to incentives and expectations. Market incentives and expecting self-responsibility makes us better. #amliberty #Libertarian

This episode of Vox’s “Future Perfect” shows in the context of prisons what libertarians have been trying to say. Build a world of control where people are expected to not control themselves, they won’t and vice versa. #amliberty https://t.co/l1cFEX6E6a
