RESTORE AMERICA - BACK TO THE BASICS

by Steve Czonstka - The Constitutional Conservative

It is no coincidence that America is the World’s longest existing Constitutional Republic and the bastion of free market capitalism. The creative turbulence of capitalism stimulates the free flow of ideas providing choice, renewing opportunities and overcoming stagnation.

America was founded on the principles of individual responsibility and free market enterprise rising out of rebellion against the stifling oppression of government. Yet, the present federal administration, both the President and Congress, seemed determined to abandon our heritage in favor of reliance on big government tenets of socialism which have failed repeatedly throughout the world. We are a government of laws, not of men. The desires of a president do not justify creation of programs redistributing private resources.

The freedom loving patriots of the Florida Panhandle and the Conservative Grassroots across America must stop this drift away from individual liberty and responsibility towards increasing dependence on government. Government is most often the problem, not the solution. We must insist on the following platform to guide local, state and national elected government officials and unelected administrators.
