Our lives, Our fortunes, and Our sacred honor

We Are Looking for a Few Good Men

In 1776 56 individuals signed their names to the Declaration of Independence. They were men of means, education and security. They risked everything they had worked for (even their lives) to declare their new country's independence from the British Crown.

TODAY WE NEED TO FIND 56 INDIVIDUALS IN WASHINGTON DC WHO ARE WILLING TO DECLARE THEIR INDEPENDENCE FROM THE PROGRESSIVE AND SOCIALIST "CROWN" THAT CURRENTLY STANDS AT THE HEAD OF THIS COUNTRY.

The time is now and our cause is just.

Voluntary or Mandatory Giving? Our Choice...Today

A Spiritual Leaders Comments on the Trend Towards a Socialist Welfare State:

What is the real cause of this trend toward the welfare state, toward more socialism? In the last analysis, in my judgment, it is personal unrighteousness. When people do not use their freedoms responsibly and righteously, they will gradually lose these freedoms. . . .

If man will not recognize the inequalities around him and voluntarily, through the gospel plan, come to the aid of his brother, he will find that through a democratic process he will be forced to come to the aid of his brother. The government will take from the haves and give to the have nots. Both have lost their freedom. Those who have, lost their freedom to give voluntarily of their own free will and in the way they desire. Those who have not, lost their freedom because they did not earn what they received. They got something for nothing, and they will neither appreciate the gift nor the giver of the gift.

Under this climate, people gradually become blind to what has happened and to the vital freedoms which they have lost. (Speeches of the Year 1965-1966, pp. 1-11, The Law of the Harvest. Devotional Address, Brigham Young University, 8 March 1966.)

Labor Markets

If you are like me, you agree that government interference with labor markets does much more harm than good.

"We support repeal of all laws which impede the ability of any person to find employment. We oppose government-fostered forced retirement. We support the right of free persons to associate or not associate in labor unions, and an employer should have the right to recognize or refuse to recognize a union. We oppose government interference in bargaining, such as compulsory arbitration or imposing an obligation to bargain."
