Examples of Libertarian Solutions

1. Cut Property Taxes 25%

“Senior citizens and on fixed incomes and low- and middle-income families in our town are being squeezed by high property taxes. They can’t afford to live here - and they can’t afford to sell their homes in this depressed housing market.

“If elected, I will sponsor a bill to cut all residential property taxes by 25% my first year in office and cut $4.9 million in waste and pork from the budget. Not a single needed government service will be affected. Over 4,500 families in our town will see their property tax go down an average of $1,225 every year. This will save families who are on the brink of foreclosure from losing their homes and will put more money back into your family budget that you can use to pay your utilities, make needed repairs to your home, or save for your retirement.”

2. Repeal Prohibition on Treating Cancer, AIDS and other Disease with Marijuana

“2,598 citizens of our state are currently suffering from the painful and debilitating effects of cancer, AIDS, glaucoma, migraines and other diseases which can be effectively and safely treated with marijuana.
“We must immediately end this unnecessary and inhumane suffering. As governor, I will immediately propose and sign legislation to end the prohibition on medical marijuana. Furthermore, if any federal regulators try to violate our 10th Amendment right and arrest non-violent users of medical marijuana in our state, I will tell them they are not welcome to do business here and deny them use of our jails and prisons. They will get no cooperation from us."

“This will end needless suffering, bring relief to family and loved ones, and dignify the many who struggle daily to survive. Many of them will be able to return to normal, pain-free lives."
