Method • No necessary to invent “new bicycle”, improvement of some machinery right enough: • Show up yourself as much as possible • Create performance out of your work • Give your alternatives for each cases • Use bright symbols • Indicate heroes • Networking, networking and networking • Youth, youth and youth
Recommendations • Start from yourself: • Act like if there is no Government • Emancipate yourself from mental slavery of dependence of others will and money • Give personal examples – Maximize free market solutions for yourself • Disobey coercion • Abstain from violence • Convert opponents (even most radicals) into friends, • Give clear statement: No Government spending allowed here!!!
Results • Society of open minded people • Tolerance • Solidarity • Peace • Growing wellbeing of all • High level of division of labor • Unpredictable intensification of cooperation • More self-confident people
Resume • Acceptance of ideas of freedom is your choice • You can help change the world by simply changing your mind • Know the truth about capitalism, and the truth will set you free, reach and myth be happy too…
