Question:

The libertarian movement has my best wishes and hopes for success. I am eager to see you succeed, and I will put my money and time where my mouth is. But first I want to see proof of progress. The proof I want is seeing a steady decline in the medias ability to launch lies and propaganda. liberty Answer:

I once saw a reproduction of the famous painting, 'Washington Crossing the Delaware.' General Washington's commanding figure, however, had been cut out, leaving his soldiers leaderless.

The caption read, "What if he had said, 'Let some other George do it?'"

Each of us has a role to play in the quest for liberty. Our natural tendency to "let some other George do it," and wait for the "proof" of victory, can cost us that victory.

Only you can decide how long to wait before jumping into the fray. Consider the possibility of creating the proof that you seek rather than waiting for someone else to do it. Your talents will do much to further the cause of freedom!
