Those of you who know me will have heard me say - I believe in markets and families.
As a Christian and a Republican, I believe that people should have the freedom to organize their finances and their relationships in anyway they see fit, without involving the machinations of the government. Any government, whatever else it does, that gets out of the way of markets and families will foster prosperity within the nation and inspire confidence within the people.
All people are created by God with 3 fundamental rights - Life, Liberty, and Property
Along with these rights, we have been endowed with corresponding responsibilities:
Personal liberty and personal responsibility go hand in hand. If we all pitch-in, we can restore our freedoms in Chicago. The first step is to get involved.

All people are created by God with 3 fundamental rights - Life, Liberty, and Property
- Right to Life - Human life is sacred and must be secured from the moment of conception until called to return to our Creator
- Right to Liberty - All people have the right to elect and manage their own affairs, so long as they do not infringe upon the liberties of others
- Right to Property - All people have the right to exchange their labor for property and services. It is immoral for an individual or government to separate a person from his property, either through theft or selective taxation or punitive taxation
Along with these rights, we have been endowed with corresponding responsibilities:
- Right to Life - To protect the our own lives as well as the lives of our families and communities
- Right to Liberty - To encourage fairness in our dealings, to not encroach on the liberties of others, and to defend the right of others when their liberties are being infringed
- Right to Property - To prevent theft where it is found, to put it right after it has occurred, and to not empower tyrants violate the property rights of their citizens
Personal liberty and personal responsibility go hand in hand. If we all pitch-in, we can restore our freedoms in Chicago. The first step is to get involved.
