We need a foreign policy of peace, non-interventionism and an end to foreign aid. We must stop engaging in immoral wars and killings around the globe. We must separate currency and state, bringing an end to the scourge of fiat currency. This is the only way to stop out-of-control government money printing and inflation. We need an absolute free-market healthcare system.
Bring an immediate end to the Iran war and all extrajudicial killings of drug trafficking suspects in the Caribbean. Take action to immediately make the FDA an advisory agency which will no longer have the power to stop dying patients from taking experimental medications. Battle global climate change by allowing free-market construction of new nuclear power plants.
