What’s Ahead for the Freedom Minute
Just a quick note to let you all know what I have planned for this blog. On the technical side, I’m working on a custom design to use when I migrate over to my personal website. I’m learning how to do this from scratch, so bear with me. When it’s done, these pages will be a little simpler to navigate. Once we’re up on the new site, it will be easy for you to subscribe to the blog (don’t worry, I’ll post an explanation and clear instructions) and to sign up for my newsletter (see below). There will be other improvements as well.
On the content side, I’m going to attempt to post at least once per day when I have something relevant to communicate. I’ll be discussing current events as they relate to the topic of personal freedom on both a local and national level. And since Election Day is fast approaching, I expect I’ll spend a good deal of time discussing the presidential race as well as the often confusing ballot initiatives here in California. In regards to those initiatives, I’ll be explaining the arguments for and against and letting you know which side I come down on and why.
On slow news days, I’ll be blogging about general principles of a free society and will be taking on such hot button topics as gun control, abortion, and environmental protection. Two upcoming posts to look out for: 1. My choice for President and why. You can probably guess the who, but the why is at least as important. 2. An in-depth discussion of why I believe a free market economy is the best and only way to achieve prosperity for the most people. I’ll also take on the criticisms usually leveled at the free market and why many believe those objections are generally not valid.
In the future, I’ll also be keeping an eye out for any attempt by those in power to erode our civil rights or personal freedoms and informing you what you can do about it. This leads me to the newsletter I have planned. You’ll have an opportunity to sign up and when there’s something I think you need to know about and possibly act on, you’ll receive an email with the details. If possible, I’ll also include an easy way for you to find and contact those to whom you can make your opinion known. Together, we will make a difference.
Also on my to-do list is a recommended reading list and links to other blogs or web sites you might be interested in.
Well that’s what I have in store for you if you want to go along for the ride. I hope you’ll join me.
