Hey everybody, just wanted some input.  I commute to and from school three days a week, and I can print over 200 pages from the school for free per week.  I want to start printing out informational flyers to hand out on my commute.  Obviously they have to be clear and brief, and I want them to focus mainly on economics but also touch on foreign policy and civil liberties as well (seeing as they are all linked).  The outline would be, in general, something as follows:

What is central banking?

What is the business cycle?

Why has government intervention always failed?

Your money for a world empire

The war at home - your liberties

Any thoughts?

 

In liberty,

Chris

That's awesome, I wish I got 200 free pages per week Big Smile

Maybe try some of the brochures at the Campaign for Liberty site?

Hey Chris, here is some that you could try:

Flyers!  & FREEDOM FRIDAYS! Contain some great pdf attachments.

Also Sukrit, I think you'd enjoy this:

Rothbard's youth activism

Ron Paul is for self-government when compared to the Constitution. He's an anarcho-capitalist. Proof.

It shouldn't be too hard to create your own flyer which follows your outline. I'd suggest to also include links to this site and other online resources like www.fee.org for those interested in learning more on your flyer.

I've always enjoyed using the 'worlds smallest political quiz' as an ice breaker then providing reasons to why the liberatarian answers make the most sense in the long run, see http://www.theadvocates.org/quiz/quiz-pdf.pdf

Haha thanks for that. That's a neat little strategy. As a libertarian, I'm always used to being on the defensive and having to justify MY point of view, whereas everyone else can just assume that the government is god and get away with it. Maybe I should turn the tables!
