“Liberty is not self-executing.”

This quote from president of the Mackinac Center for Law and Policy Joe Lehman is featured in a documentary film called The Big Skim. The film is about labor unions skimming dues from unsuspecting caregivers’ stipends through corrupt state governments.

The quote couldn’t be more appropriate in terms of accuracy and call to activation for Americans at this time.

We give the execute command on liberty when we “look into the perfect law of liberty,” that which calls us to love our God and to love our neighbor as ourselves (James 1:25). We don’t love our neighbor or our God with a disregard for the truth. We don’t love them by letting our neighbors be taken advantage of. We can’t love with respect of persons, says the same epistle writer. Finally, we can’t love them if we feel we ourselves are unloveable and worthy of having our advantage taken.

Thoughtful, well-informed individuals in a free society can live and work together regardless of differences. That will be our goal at this page.

Individuals who are allowed to fully live out their wills and desires, guided by Christ with virtue and morality, make up a better world for everyone. Not everyone chooses the best for themselves and their neighbors, but as my friend Jeff Hartline says, “Liberty is messy.” I propose liberty is best enacted voluntarily under God and with the checks and balances of a civil society that has all of its institutions in their proper places.
