“[T]he Swiss people are the best practitioners of the ideals of non-aggression. The Swiss national government posts are parttime positions. Most decisions are made at the canton (state) level. Swiss per capita income is the highest in the world, showing that non-aggression pays. How did the Swiss come to adopt a relatively non-aggressive constitution in an aggressive world? In the mid-1800s, they imitated our constitution and stuck with it!” PeopleWorldMadeStatesGovernmentDecisionLevelsPayPositionHighestIdealsConstitutionStuckIncomePostsAggressiveAggressionSwiss Author:Mary Ruwart
“Libertarianism is the simple morality we learned as children: Don’t strike first, don’t steal or cheat, keep your promises. If you inadvertently fail to live up to these standards, make it up to the person you’ve harmed. If someone harms you, you may defend yourself as needed to stop the aggressor and obtain reparations. This simple morality works group-to-group just as it works one-to-one to bring about a peaceful and prosperous world.” IfsWorldFirstsMayChildrenPersonsSimpleFailingGroupsNeededMoralityPromiseStandardsHarmStrikesStealingPeacefulLibertarianismCheatProsperousReparationsAggressors Author:Mary Ruwart
