Liberty Now is a blog dedicated to liberty, freedom, and capitalism. You will find posts and articles here concerning US political issues and current events from the perspective of individuals who believe the government is too large and intrusive, and should be reduced in size and restricted in power.

Government has extended it’s powers so far past the limits imposed by the constitution that there is no power that they could not justify assuming. The federal budget has now eclipsed 2.5 trillion dollars and we have record deficits. It should be obvious that these two points are beyond dangerous. Liberty Now will help to spread the message that these practices are not sustainable and hurt everyone.

We also believe that through capitalism and free markets we can solve many of the problems that government tries and fails to solve today. We will point out free market success stories and ways that the capitalism could solve problems if government would get out of the way.

Who should read Liberty Now?

Obviously we welcome anyone to read LibertyNow.com, but primarily we expect to reach an audience of fiscal conservatives and libertarians.

The Republican party controls all three branches of the federal government, and not only has spending not been reduced, the federal budget is growing at uncontrollable levels with record deficits. Virtually all Republicans claim during campaigns that they are for reducing spending and the size of govenment. They have never had a better opportunity than now, and the government only gets bigger. Fiscal conservatives who voted for this party should be outraged, and Liberty Now will provide them an outlet.

Being the party of small government, Libertarians will find that most of the commentary here is perfectly in line with their principals. We hope that Liberty Now will become a home away from home for many Libertarians.

Thanks for visiting Liberty Now. We hope that you will check back often.
