Legalize freedom! (MNLG's position on the expansion of gambling)

The issue of expanding gambling has gripped the State Capitol and the inner workings of the Republican Party lately. We will avoid the personal barbs, and just state that the most consistent position someone in favor of limited government can take is to allow vice, despite whatever your personal inclinations may be. It is important to remember that liberty, as messy as it is sometimes, is one of the cornerstones of what separates American life from nations with autocrats and Kings. We do not mean to minimize the dangers of vice, but we do mean to suggest that they are often personal medical issues that require the intervention of family and friends, and not the state. So, as an organization committed to the idea of limited government, free market economics and personal responsibility, MNLG cannot offer support for any of the Gambling plans on the table at the Capitol.

The current American Indian gambling monopoly is completely unacceptable to anyone who believes in free markets, and the current effort to expand this monopoly to another special interest does not pass muster either. If Minnesota wants to offer gambling, then it should do so to anyone who is willing to use their own resources to open a Casino or other gambling establishment. Legislation at the state level that attempts to pick winners and losers in the economy will always be vehemently opposed by MNLG, and as a solution to this problem we propose simply legalizing freedom. Businesses and individuals are more than capable of making good decisions in regards to the future of gambling in Minnesota, and no amount of state intervention will be able to save people committed to making bad decisions from themselves.

Sincerely,

Jake Barnett
Chairman - MNLG
