The 10 principles of a FREE society.

These are the basic 10 principles to any free society.

1. Rights, (a) belong to individuals, not groups. (b) They derive from our nature and can neither be granted nor taken away by any form of government.

2. All peaceful, voluntary economic and social interactions are permitted; consent is the basis of the social and economic order.

3. Justly acquired property is privately owned by individuals and voluntary groups, and this ownership cannot be arbitrarily voided  by governments.

4. Government may not redistribute private wealth or grant special privileges to any individual or group.

5. Individuals are responsible for their own actions; government cannot and should not protect us from ourselves.

6. Government may not claim the monopoly over a people's money. Government may never engage in official counterfeiting in the name of macroeconomic stability.

7. Aggressive wars, even when called preventative, and even when they pertain only to trade relations are forbidden.

8. Jury nullification, that is, the right of jurors to judge the law as well as the facts, is the right of the people and courtroom norm.

9. All forms of involuntary servitude are prohibited, not only slavery but also conscription, forced association, and forced welfare distribution.

10. Government must obey the law that it expects other people to obey and thereby must never use force to mold behavior, manipulate social outcomes, manage the economy, or tell other countries how to behave.
