Libertarianism is different because of Peace – R. Lee Wrights

BURNET, Texas (March 17) – As I’ve crisscrossed the country the past few months visiting Libertarian state party conventions, I’ve had plenty of time on the road between stops to reflect on what I’ve heard from my fellow libertarians. And what I’m hearing from an increasing number of them is that they’re ready to make a difference in 2012 simply by being different, by being true libertarians.

Libertarianism is all about non-aggression. The philosophy of life which guides all libertarians and which drives some of us to plunge into the political process is the exact opposite of what motives Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives. We leave people alone. They tell everyone how to live. We’re good neighbors. They’re nosy neighbors. We’re for peace. They’re for war.

Peace is the Death of War – R. Lee Wrights

 

LeeWritesF[2832]

BURNET, Texas (May 26, 2012) – When I began my quest for the Libertarian presidential nomination, my staff and I were committed to making the campaign about more than just winning the nomination. We determined that whoever was the nominee, the message of the Libertarian Party in 2012 would be “Stop All War,” and that message would be heard in all 50 states. To that end, we pledged 10 percent of all donations to insure ballot access, and began The Million Vote March project to achieve a historic first for the Libertarian Party.

As I have said from the beginning, this is not about Lee Wrights. It’s about the Libertarian Party and the libertarian message of peace, prosperity and progress. While the campaign for the nomination is over, the campaign to Stop All War, to gain 50-state ballot access, and to win one million votes for the Libertarian candidate for president continues. It must continue. Not only because it’s what my staff and I have pledged to do, but because it’s right for the Libertarian Party and it’s right for America.

Korean War Veteran Shafted By Greedy Developers

dadmom1

My name is Thomas Hill.

I am the founder of the Cedarvale Farms Justice Project.

Below is a “Cliff Notes” version of my family’s story…

A story of an elderly US Navy Korean War Veteran and his disabled wife…

My elderly parents…

M.D. and Shirley Hill signed a “Deed Of Sewer And Easement” in May 2004. This would allow the development of the Cedarvale Farms subdivision. Without such an agreement, the subdivision would have never seen the light of day.

In exchange for the privilege of having the sewer line constructed across their land, the developer would construct a “Grantor Sewer Line”, which would extend approximately 1,500 linear feet along the creek crossing the Hill’s property with seven Laterals. This would enable the Hill’s to develop their property as they saw fit.

The deadline for commencing the Grantor Sewer Line was August 30. 2007. The developer missed the deadline. Being good and reasonable neighbors, the Hill’s granted not one, but two deadline extensions. The Hills bent over backwards to help make this development possible.

What have the Hill’s received for their good deeds and efforts?

Absolutely nothing!

Almost 13 years have passed since the ink dried on the contract and the Hills have nothing to show for their sacrifice.

Cedarvale Farms is booming. New homes are springing forth like weeds. The developers are making money, hand over fist, while the Hills suffer.

This website is an attempt to finally deliver justice to the Hill Family. This is just the beginning. Over the coming days and weeks, I will be telling the Hill’s story…

…the story of my parents and the struggles and suffering they have endured because greedy folks will not honor their legal contracts.
