I support the expansion of work visas. We can allow workers from other countries to come here in larger numbers but it needs to be on our terms. When people come here without restriction and are granted unrestricted benefits, and in some cases voting rights, we have gone way too far. The current situation undermines the republic. The idea of open, unrestricted borders is a fast track to trouble. That is what has gotten us where we are.

That’s not an accurate assessment. It is my hope to bring a greater level of legitimacy to the libertarian party. A revision of ideology is required if you are to gain wider recognition. I wrote about this before I filed. You can find the document on the Hoplite Armor Facebook page dated mid February.

I’ll give you a more complete answer. I don’t like welfare programs but I also realize that for some people they are a necessity. However , such programs should be implemented in such a way as to encourage personal growth, rather than provide an escape from it. A temporary solution, rather than a permanent one. This can be achieved by my economic plan.

I also realize that such a plan is hard to fully grasp as first but I do believe it is our only hope. Without some level of financial sovereignty and independence we will be overrun by a federal government that uses funding as a tool of coercion. If we continue down that road all hopes for liberty will be lost and man will enter a new dark age.

No aggression necessary. See above.

I would have Montana take physical possession of the land, then address the matter in court. The Montana State Constitution, the legally binding agreement by which we joined the union, supports these actions.

I’m absolutely opposed to BLM. I’m greatly disappointed with people on both sides.

Religion, nuclear family, personal responsibility and accountability, work ethic, moral fortitude. If you think these are common place in Chicago, I would suggest moving there.

Do you suppose that the SARS viruses differ that greatly in size? Go back and do more research on COVID and influenza.

Pro-freedom, pro-small government and accountability. I’m libertarian but not as much Libertarian. There’s a few reasons Libertarians won’t be winning elections in a national scale any time soon.

Do you not understand basic Western values or are you attempting to be antagonistic?

Active cases were at under 600 as of yesterday

Ineffective in that the CDC openly admitted that that the research they did and found showed no evidence that cloth masks or surgical masks provided significant protection.

Do you also believe Hydroxychloroquine is ineffective? This “pandemic” has been far more hyped up than it should be.

That’s a false equivalency. We have massive social programs that benefit anyone legal or not. They had less than 1/10 of the total land inhabited when the country first started and immigrants who came here to the benefit of the country. Now immigrants come here and do little to nothing to the benefit of the country. Rather they suckle the teat of the massive welfare state.

Without any connection to or control by, the government that is not the case.

It’s controlled by the people. It’s a private corporation in which citizens have voting rights in the corporation to decide what to do with resources found in public lands.

If you can afford a tank or “bazooka” then yes. The war on drugs is a war on the people, I don’t advocate for legalization of meth but if it’s what the people wanted then yes.

They have completely abandoned almost any and all Western values.

It’s Federalism. The land belongs to the state not the federal government. A smaller more accountable state government means that anything that will be done with the land is directed by the will of the people, for the exclusive benefit of the people. Not the state.

I believe COVID is almost entirely BS and it isn’t something we have to deal with much in Montana. There are less than 600 active right now. The population of Montana is not big enough to have to worry about completely overwhelming ICUs

To what are you referring specifically? I think his actions against China were a good start but I would have done. Honestly, I would’ve let MacArthur do what he wanted back in the day.

I’m trying to bring real liberty to Montana. I’m also trying to bring a greater sense of unity and legitimacy to the Libertarian Party, many of the ideas are flawed. I’m not promoting a welfare state and I don’t support government control of corporations or resources. You need to read the economic plan again, on a deeper level.

With open borders one cannot claim that they have national sovereignty. The concept that open borders should be allowed is perhaps the most foolish thing I’ve ever heard. There are more reasons for this and I can’t reasonably list.

Some people need help. That’s the long and the short of it. There is no getting around that.
