Ron Paul Forum's Mission Statement:
Inspired by US Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, this site is dedicated to facilitating grassroots initiatives that aim to restore a sovereign limited constitutional Republic based on the rule of law, states' rights and individual rights. We seek to enshrine the original intent of our Founders to foster respect for private property, seek justice, provide opportunity, and to secure individual liberty for ourselves and our posterity.
interesting, would people be more likely to be libertarian because of this?? what is the goal here
Tu ne cede malis sed contra audentior ito
NO, NO, NO!!! The goal of the liberty movement must be to piss people off! We gotta ruin their day and then blame it on gov't! YOU'VE GOT TO GET ANGRY!!!
Interesting idea, it's a nice little public service, but I have questions (just questions, not doubts) about its effect in the fight for liberty.Originally Posted by FrankRep
1. Are the meters privately owned? Otherwise you cutting down on the tickets, but the government is still getting their money, (if the meters are publicly administered) Heck they might be getting more, because you could be paying for people who weren't going to stay there long anyway.
2. What happens to the meter maids? It's not like they are going to go home and find a job in the real economy. They'll just be doing less work in their government job.
No one who was spared a ticket is going to read whatever literature is left behind and think, "$#@! these people! what about the parking meter people?!"
I don't understand how the government can make a law saying you cannot pay for another persons parking meter: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michae..._b_111120.html
This is not activism to keep the govt from getting money, it is OUTREACH to people that don't know about them or what they are about, and for that it is quite cheap advertising.
No one reads signatures.
