Libertarians at Muncie Free Press - Delaware County Indiana | News and Information

Due to the increase in the number and size of our grandchildren, it became apparent recently that we were going to need a larger vehicle, regardless of gas prices. My wife is the shopper in the family, so most of the decision making fell to her. It was an exhaustive process to decide on the best vehicle, best gas mileage, best trade-in deal, best price and best warranty before she was able to tell me which one I wanted, and where we would spend our money.

In a recent Courier Times article, my honorable Republican opponent for this fall's District 54 race, Tom Saunders,
states that "Rex wants you to do away with a lot of government, but I'm not sure that's what the public wants." He's right about me wanting to do away with a lot of government.

Being raised on a farm with a few dairy cows, extended family vacations were out of the question. The cows had to be milked before we left, and milked when we got home, so the best we could hope for was the occasional day trip. Sometimes, looking out the back window of the old station wagon at an unfamiliar road, one of the kids would ask where we were, and how long it would be before we arrived at our destination. Dad’s standard reply was, “We’re lost, but we’re making good time”. 

Property taxes are finally getting as much attention from the Republicans and Democrats as the Libertarians have been giving them for years. I'd like to say its about time, but its hard to get too enthused about their concern.

INDIANA - The Libertarian Party of Indiana has worked for many years to advise the citizens of Indiana, as well as their state and local officials, that Indiana's reliance on property taxes was leading to a crisis point.
