My point is that even government fails. And if government fails, another organization should be able to meet the need of the citizens it serves.

Big business is honestly no different. Save the fact that occaisionally Big Business ends up controlling a far too powerful Big Government.

Here me:  No entity is perfect. Government, Business, my friends or family.  I still want them all in my life, as long as they respect me.  

Would you consider that freedom of choice, and freedom of competition are good for you, and good for me. Essentially, it eliminates the perpetuation of failures.  

Do you care about those affected by the failures of government?  Would you accept a failure on the scale of Iraq for your own personal health care without an alternative?  I would like alternatives, and want them for you too. 

I support Ron Paul because he doesn't believe he is the smartest person in the world. I support Ron Paul because he will allow me to choose between competing systems for service (state vs. state, or company vs. government). I believe that choice leads to charity. 

Finally, I believe that you matter as much as me.  And that I matter as much as the 'exception' that so many of these debates seem to highlight... You know these exceptions. "What about this group or that group if you do this or that".

Well, world. I am an exception as well. I belong to a group. The group that works hard, helps people, and believes that Freedom is what we should all be voting for, be we Democrat, Republican, Libertarian or whatever.  I become an "Exception" when a large national government takes from me, and my group, to serve another with force or taxes. 

I ask you this: If you don't support Paul, please don't mislabel him. I support your right to vote against the person I support, and hope you support mine. But Ron Paul is the most indepenant, most honest, most principled person in Congress.

This is the first time I have written such an article.  Ron Paul is the first politician whom I have supported financially in a primary.  If you would agree with me, I encourage you to do all you can.  Write, give, support.  In fact, I encourage you to do this for whichever candidate you support, please just do it honestly, and respectfully.   

Yours in Freedom,

Ed.
