Newlibertarians.com Organization Poll

Thank you for registering with newlibertarians.com. As promised this is the first newsletter, and I’m seeking your input how you would like to see the organization focus its attention and resources. I’ll ask you to take this survey and e-mail it to me, together with a short note telling me about yourself and what you would like to see us do.

This poll is adapted from Trump’s budget survey, and contains many of the same questions. You elect your representatives to tax you fairly and spend your money wisely, carefully and efficiently to give you what you expect from your government- and that is their most important function. You won’t see any questions about “hot-button non-issues” in this poll, because we’re trying to come to a consensus about national priorities, not make you angry or try to control you or manipulate your response.

If you think any question is biased, misleading, misses the point- let us know. We’re trying to learn from you, not teach you or make you think one thing or another.

Some Americans think the goal of World Peace is of the highest priority to the future of America, and the UN serves to give countries a forum to discuss ways to cooperate rather than conflict- and well worth the investment. Others have a different view of the UN, believe it engages in world corruption leading to wars rather than preventing them- and shouldn’t be supported by US taxpayers.
