Well, we are social beings so we need to begin developing our social network of persons who are free from religious prejudice and who recognize the beauty of classical liberalism.
It is these cells of unity and justice that will protect private property rights, identify and use a commodity money, educate one another, and assist one another.
These cells are the nuclei of the future diverse classical liberalism societies that will compose the peaceful and prosperous worldwide classical civilization.

Alertness And Responsiveness Give Cities Great Potential.
The interesting aspect of all of this is the potential flexibility of these smaller 'units.' Imagine if you would a scenario where local officials begin to talk among themselves about the merits of classical liberalism. Imagine that they actually come to the realization that prosperity would come to them magnetically if all the disincentives of interventionism were abolished. Imagine if they actually realized that being a statesman is far more glorious than being an ego-driven interventionist and that the moral and ethical thing to do is to preserve and protect property rights.
As a consequence of free trade and commerce and the justice of a contractual society, the flow of goods and services and the engendering of happy people would quickly transform the previously wasted and lethargic resources into an engine of prosperity.
Now back to the initial point. This potential is very near the surface in cities of all sizes. In cities, if the elected local representatives are respected because they possess qualities of character, but like most they are indoctrinated by the propaganda of the government about 'democracy,' and then they have the good fortune to find the logic and ethics of classical liberalism there is a real chance that they can easily gain the consent of the local people to make the change.
Who would object to no taxes, and a prosperous environment for businesses, and protection of property rights?
All of us, therefore, have the honor and responsibility to perservere and to try to educate the people in our communities who are serving in leadership capacities about the principles of classical liberalism.
Is it secession or self-preservation at this point? The parasitic leviathan steeped in socialism and fascism will kill the cities to save its wretched self otherwise!

Private Streets And Infrastructure!
I classify the whole issue of 'public goods' and eminent domain under a term called 'Forced Development.' This macro approach is just as arbitrary as price regulation.
Whose vision for development is being 'forced' on people? What would happen if there was no arbitrary development forced on people?
In a classical liberalism society people who want to have 'infrastructure' will migrate to places that have contractual relationships in place that foster that type of 'development.' If that is indeed a good thing then it will be a very prosperous place and other places will then emulate it and civilization will advance in that way.
At the same time, those people who want less 'development' can choose to live in places that have contractual relationships that preserve those type of conditions. Over time they will still evolve along with and parallel to the ever-advancing civilization because the people living in these places will have children and their idealism will have an influence over the long run. Prosperity is very attractive to most people.

Ignorance About Classical Liberalism Is To Blame!
Last month was Black History Month. One of the things it has done is permitted the lost contributions of people who had been excluded from history to be rediscovered. Now an even more important American tradition needs to be rediscovered and that is classical liberalism. Most people do not know that the inspiration for our Constitutional Republic was the classical liberalism philosophy extant in Europe at the time.
Why do people not know this? Because the education system that is controlled by the government does not teach about classical liberalism. Why does it not teach about classical liberalism? Because classical liberalism identifies the government as an extractor of wealth and as the source of corruption and oppression. This is what the U.S. Constitution was designed to protect us against but now the government controls every aspect of our lives and makes darn sure that people are not educated about classical liberalism.
That is why it sounds so odd and strange when liberty, and sound money, and peaceful relationships with all other nations, are put out there for consideration!
On March 4th the Gazette headline was ‘Human factor lifts sales tax’ as if those who are compassionate wanted higher taxes! A sales tax is the most regressive of all taxes which means that it is most painful for the poor and those with lower incomes! So if it wasn’t the compassionate human factor then what was it that won? Bigger government because people are not aware of their classical liberalism heritage!

Economic Ignorance Undermines Prosperity.
On October 18th the headline on the first page of the Gazette was “Big money from FEMA.” This is what the politicians have all proclaimed as a good thing, as part of the charade to make it appear that they are being productive.
When the ‘Big money’ flows into the area what will happen? With regards production - more units of goods cannot be squeezed out of what is physically available, so in essence there are the same number of goods but there are more dollars chasing those same goods. Demand increases while supply is fixed which means prices will go up! Our thanks goes to the politicians who add nothing to production but who intensify inflation.
Additionally FEMA gets its money from the federal government - the biggest debtor in the history of the world. Where does it get its money? The Federal Reserve prints it up and the effect is the exactly the same as counterfeiting. Printing up dollars out of thin air makes the dollar worth less which means its purchasing power diminishes which is the definition of inflation. Who is vigorously bringing this funny money into our area thereby intensifying inflation? The politicians who are trying to make a name for themselves at our expense.
It is a shame that the U.S. political system simply generates politicians who know only socialism and fascism and pretend that it is economics. For example, every single representative from Iowa voted to bail out Wall Street.
Vote against status quo.

The Magnetism of the Model Classical Liberalism City.
As I mentioned in my last blog entry it is the Association of the private owners of property in the model classical liberalism city that ‘acts to attract capital by making the City a place where people want to come to visit, and shop, and do business and leisure.’ There are no artificial boundaries necessary since all property rights and human rights are protected by clear definitions, ones that are continually refined to keep up with changes in technology.
Once these artificial boundaries are discarded the concept of world citizenship and international free trade become clearly relevant to a City that wants to be a place where people want to come to visit, and shop, and to do business and leisure. All the benefits from the international division of labor around the world find welcoming arms in a City earnestly seeking ways to bring sustainable prosperity to the property owners.
There are no reasons to construct trade barriers since the Association covenant defines the requirements necessary to protect the integrity and aesthetics of the activities in the City. As a result this City quickly becomes recognized as a free trade zone with reasonable customs to be respected (the covenant).
The owners of property in the model classical liberalism city benefit directly from the flow of people and capital that migrate to this haven of non-coercive economics. There is no limit to the amount of prosperity that will continually flow from the laissez-faire approach implemented by the Association and wholeheartedly desired by the property owners.
At some point the City will have to do one of two things to overcome the physical limitations of its original boundary. More property lying outside the original privately owned City can be purchased and the City can expand its boundary in that way.
Or nearby cities can decide to emulate this model classical liberalism city and gradually restructure themselves so that they are completely private. Then the flow or overflow (maybe a more accurate description) of prosperous activity can continue in that same region and take advantage of the infrastructure already being used in and around the model classical liberalism city. That model city can be Cedar Rapids if the socialistic tendencies resulting from improper education can be overcome!
This blog will be a repository of ideas, concepts and principles that support the philosophy of classical liberalism for the purpose of making Cedar Rapids a model city, worthy of emulation.

The Covenant of the Model Classical Liberalism City.
In my last blog on this topic I said this:
‘Now we begin to get a picture of who will compose the owners of the downtown properties and some of the basic elements of commerce. These property owners are the ones who will become a community, with a common interest in a prosperous city. In a later blog I will discuss the organization of the Association.’
For the lack of a better term we will call this group of owners an Association. There is much to be done by the Association and so membership needs to be quickly defined. All owners of private property in the designated downtown area which demarcates the tax-free zone are members. If there is any property which for the time being is considered ‘public’ lying within this boundary that entity does not have any membership rights.
Private ownership of property is the membership requirement.
This is where the philosophy of classical liberalism becomes extremely important since the next two steps are foundational. A covenant needs to be developed that honors liberty, justice and prosperity. And a governing body needs to be instituted, one that forbids economic interventionism.
An analogy will help here. If a weed seed is planted it will germinate and may very well grow very rapidly but it is ultimately undesirable. If the seed planted is classical liberalism then the fruits of liberty, justice and prosperity will nourish everyone from then on as soon as it attains maturity.
The essence of the covenant is the recognition that property rights are human rights. It is the covenant, then, that establishes and defines property rights and implements a process that allows for a constant refining of property rights so that those areas which are currently cloudy become more clear. Then protecting people and property from violence and fraud - which is the responsibility of government - can be accomplished without arbitrariness.
The Association necessarily has structure and it functions to serve the members and to represent well the City to the visitors. Removal of the possibility of ego-driven interventionism is one of the reasons the Association will not take on powers that are not given to it.
From among the members individuals will be nominated based on their service within the community (their virtuous deeds), again not because they have ego-driven schemes in mind. Initially the Association will have to decide how to allocate its representation. Do corporations have the same voting power as an individual? Do residents have the same voting power as businesses?
One good first step is to make electioneering a reason for disqualification. Those who serve on the Association will be the ones who are already serving in the community and are nominated because others recognize their deeds.
The Association is the steward of private ownership and it acts to attract capital by making the City a place where people want to come to visit, and shop, and do business and leisure. If Cedar Rapids is alert to the opportunity at its door to become a model classical liberalism city then those who stand at this juncture in history will be praised for their foresight.
