“Libertarians have always battled the age-old scourge of war. They understood that war brought death and destruction on a grand scale, disrupted family and economic life, and put more power in the hands of the ruling class - which might explain why the rulers did not always share the popular sentiment for peace. Free men and women, of course, have often had to defend their own societies against foreign threats; but throughout history, war has usually been the common enemy of peaceful, productive people on all sides of the conflict.” PeopleMenWarHandsMightAgeCoursesSidesCommonEnemyClassShareEconomicConflictUnderstoodMen And WomenDestructionThreatLibertarianScalesPeacefulProductiveSentimentsRulersRulingFree ManScourgeCommon Enemy Book:The Libertarian Mind: A Manifesto for Freedom Source: The Libertarian Mind: A Manifesto for Freedom

“There is an undeniable economic and cultural disconnect between many of those who volunteer to serve and those who choose to remain civilians. But what is more concerning to me is the disconnect between our political leadership that applauds our soldiers and veterans, but then won't provide funding to properly armored vehicles or health care when our servicemen and women come home. You can't send men and women to war without being prepared to take care of them abroad and give them the services they need when they return home.” MenNeedsGivingWarHomeCarePoliticalEconomicReturnMen And WomenPreparedSoldierTake CareHealth CareComing HomeVehicleVolunteerVeteranCiviliansFundingServicemenPolitical Leadership Author:Ruben Gallego
