More than ever, we are witnessing a progressive (pun intended) tearing down of the societal experiment in individual freedom and Natural Rights known as the United States of America.
There are people that hold power...some with good intentions, some not...that are pushing toward collective authoritarian forms of government that history has shown are ultimately really bad for humanity.
Natural Rights Operations firmly believes that forming societal structures based on the principles of individualism and classical liberalism constitutes the best formula for the social well-being and prosperity of all of humanity.
As such, we intend to leverage our positions of power to stand for the freedom and Natural Rights of every individual.
Who We Are
We could be considered to be part of the "Intellectual Elite" (or even part of the "Intellectual Dark Web", should we ever be so lucky!), with our founding team holding advanced degrees from top-tier academic institutions.
We could be considered to be part of "Big Tech" and "Corporate America", with our founding team having held executive leadership positions with a variety of noteworthy Silicon Valley technology companies.
We could be considered to be part of the "Military-Industrial Complex", with our founding team having significant experience working with prominent Aerospace and Defense companies on projects for the United States Government while holding high-level security clearances.
Yes, we could be considered to be part of all of those TeRiBLe things! 😃
Headquarters
Our headquarters are currently located in the San Francisco Bay Area of the United States of America and we strive to preserve and advance the "California Dream" and the "American Dream" for all.
(So yes, we are essentially the "resistance based behind enemy lines" in the heart of the "Democratic People's Republic of California"! However, there are more members of the "Rebel Alliance" here than one might think...)
What We Believe
Our overarching political ideology is individualism.
We believe that all human beings are created equal, that we are all inherently endowed as individuals with certain unalienable Natural Rights, and that among these rights are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness, Safety and Security.
We believe that to secure these rights, Governments may be instituted among individuals within a society, with these Governments deriving their just powers only from the consent of the governed individuals.
We believe that the best formula for the social well-being and prosperity of all of humanity is for individuals to form societal governments based on the principles of Classical Liberalism, Democracy, and Free-Market Capitalism, with the addition of just the right amount of intervention and regulation to keep things in check, but always with the goal of maximizing individual liberties.
We also fully acknowledge that figuring out what amount is "just the right amount" is the really difficult part!
Thus, with thinking that at least some minimal form of government is useful, we believe - as the joke goes - that Democracy is the worst form of government and Capitalism is the worst type of economic system...except for all of the others.
We believe that the Constitution of the United States of America is not perfect, but is brilliant in its construct and comes fairly close to comprising as relatively good of a formula as possible for a societal government (we just need to follow it).
We believe that the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution, along with the Declaration of Independence of the United States, is the most important legal document with regard to the well-being of humanity in the history of the world.
Furthermore, we believe that the Constitution of the United States, and in particular its Bill of Rights, is the greatest impediment to the advancement of more authoritarian governance, both nationally and globally, which explains the seemingly relentless efforts from multiple sources and angles to remove, revise, replace, and/or circumvent its boundaries and protections by those who wish to have greater control over society and the economy.
We believe that, from its inception, the citizens of the United States of America ordained, established, and must now persist in following the Constitution in order to continue improving and striving to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.
We believe that intervention and regulation in Free-Market Capitalism by Governments should be limited, and only conducted with the express purpose of maximizing individual liberties and supporting the Natural Rights of all individual citizens, such as in efforts to avoid the "tragedy of the commons", limit cronyism and collusion, prevent monopolies, monopsonies, cartels, and racketeering, and avert other concentrations of power.
Fundamentally speaking, we believe that control over the lives of individuals, the economy, and society inherently requires some type of power to enforce, that power lends itself to corruption, and that corruption leads to harmful outcomes for many, if not most, individuals, the economy, and society as a whole. Therefore, axiomatically, we should endeavor to minimize the amount of power and control that any government, group, or individual may hold in order to maximize the overall level of human well-being and prosperity in the United States and throughout the world.
Our founding team primarily comprises individuals who are admittedly imperfect followers of the teachings that are presented in the Christian Bible. That being said, we welcome and support any spiritual belief or practice (including non-belief) that seeks the just and peaceful co-existence of all of humanity based on the inherent Natural Rights of every individual human being.
Last but not least, we are staunch believers in the Natural Right of self defense and the necessity to keep and bear arms for the security of a free State as protected by the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America.
