Today I have some absolutely fantastic news. Last night I received an email from Kelly at MailPoet support (She's awesome!). We've been working for the past two weeks to sort out why MailPoet hasn’t worked on 2MinuteFreedomChallenge.com. We finally have it all sorted out, which is very exciting news. (If only for me!) So if you tried to sign up for the 2-Minute Freedom … [Read more...]
The Only Entitlement I Expect From My Government is FREEDOM
What does Jay-Walking have to do with Liberty?
What does Jay-Walking have to do with Liberty? Actually, that’s the wrong question. The correct question is this: Why do we refuse to teach our children personal responsibility? Why make it a crime to cross the street wherever you choose? I can hear the gasps of horror already and I've not even finished penning this article!
