With the primaries looking at us for 2007 city elections, the Terre Haute Libertarians are developing a platform.
1. No Extra-constitutional government - This means no communist buying of buildings like a previous government did with Center City. Also no fascist government with resources going from the poor and working classes to the large corporations. As mentioned below, Hayek noticed that whether communist or fascist, the result is an anti-moral government that makes leaders behave badly. Plainly, this means no special bonds or tax abatements handed out as corporate welfare. Bids will be open to the public.
2. Protection of property rights - The reason for government is to protect rights, personal and property rights included. Libertarians will respect eminent domain, the blighting of property and other tricks to steal property for the special class, and an end to fines for so-called offenses like grass being too high.
3. Transparent Government - "The People" must know what the government is doing to be able to petition it and bid on projects. To aid citizens, we plan to televise City Council meetings. (and paid for by taxes!)
4. Minimum wage or payroll relief - For the poor and small businesses we are looking at a minimum wage for the city and county. This may end with the more libertarian payroll relief rather than a minimum wage hike (socialism?) which might put the city and county too dependent on the State and Federal governments for relief if for some reason small business is chased away. Your opinions are welcome here.
5. Healthcare for a fraction of current costs - In Greeneville, TN, my brother can visit Dr. Berry. With no third party pay, costs will be much less for the uninsured and those with high deductibles and co-pays. Pass on this site which has much valuable information on it including how to start up, to any doctors you think might be interested.

The employees of the city of Terre Haute will be a good starting point to the healthcare of the future. This is an assist to a free market in healthcare, giving higher quality at lower prices.
We hope to bring responsible government to Terre Haute which cannot be accomplished without the help of informed and involved citizens.
In 2008, county libertarians will be running on a similar platform including $100/day jury pay. This may be raised to $200/day pay with the hope of getting poor and wealthy to work together for the good of the county, developing mutual respect.
