Note: If you are a US citizen living in Australia, and want to know how to vote for Ron Paul, please email me at anthony(AT)la.org.au OR visit the US Federal Voting Assistance Program website at http://www.fvap.gov/ United States Congressman Ron Paul announced his candidacy for the 2008 Republican Party Presidential nomination on the 12th of March, 2007. At the time, he was relatively unknown, even in the US. That would soon change. Around that time I was browsing YouTube, which was then still in its infancy. Somehow, I found myself watching a video of this bloke. I can't recall whether it was a debate, interview or speech, but it took about 15 seconds for his message to deeply resonate.

I watched the debates online, read every article, watched every interview and listened to every speech. Immediately I noticed the media and the other candidates were treating this man with utter disdain. It was so obvious, and so irritating. They would variously ignore him, laugh at him, slander him, and ask him ridiculous questions designed purely to embarrass.

To mark the historic Mises Seminar in Sydney, Liberty Australia is launching The Journal of Peace, Prosperity and Freedom. Inspired by the Libertarian Papers, but not wanting to duplicate that esteemed publication, the new journal will carve out a niche in Australian applications of Austrian economics, revisionist history, legal arguments from an individualist perspective and other topics not addressed by existing free-market publications. The primary focus will be on Australia, however analysis of other countries and general principles is welcome. Journals are typically peer-reviewed, so I will maintain a list of referees with expertise in the specialist topics covered by the review. If you are interested in acting as a referee please shoot me an email.

Rupert Murdoch, whom many of us are ashamed to say is an Australian, signaled his support for US Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Monday evening, calling him the “only candidate Bureaucrat steals 16 million dollarsPosted by Robert P. Landis on 10th December 2011 6:07pm
Highlighting that bureaucrats are not all saints who want to "serve the public". Then again, I suppose they might have been influenced by the fact that the government stole the money in the first place. |
