Libertarian candidate for Kansas House of Representatives serving district 33

[Rick Parsons for Kansas @Rickforkansas]

The crux of my libertarianism is the idea that not every societal problem requires a government solution.

There are two types of hope: There is false hope that tells us everything will be ok no matter what. Then there's the hope that if you work hard enough and smart enough, we can accomplish anything.

I want to get #JudgeReinholdforSCOTUS trending. Can you help me out here?

Why is this even still an issue? #endprohibition

We need more education and less suppression.

We are witnessing the crumbling of a nation. And it's not the Republicans fault. It's not the Democrats fault. It's OUR fault. Everytime we unwittingly participate in culture war clashes and partisan foolishness, we are contributing the downfall of America.

[Rick Parsons for Kansas @Rickforkansas]

Your power and autonomy. It is not in their best interests to see you make it on your own because that would mean you don't need them anymore. It's time that we reclaim our lives and reclaim our power.

[Rick Parsons for Kansas @Rickforkansas]

Believe it or not I actually got into politics as a way to help people realize their full potential. I realized that our elected officials, who many people look up to, are actively trying to do the opposite. It's a game to them. They want to hold you down in order to strip you of

Running for office as a Libertarian is like playing monopoly except the Republicans and Democrats start with $1,500 and you start with maybe $50. It's a rigged system and nobody cares.

[Rick Parsons for Kansas @Rickforkansas]

The problem with politicians is they are not trained to see the future. They only see what is right in front of them and only through the lens of what will benefit them by the next election.

Sometimes it's the little things that remind me why I'm running for the Kansas House of Rep.

Take control of your own life because if you don't, somebody else will.

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

The two-party system—with its pervasive hyperpartisanship and disregard for the structures of government—is *the* existential threat to our republic. Everything else is just a sideshow.

Turn your greatest vulnerabilities into your greatest strengths

[Rick Parsons for Kansas @Rickforkansas]

Republicans and Democrats are the same party. They just don't realize it yet.

What if the problem isn't too many cops. What if the problem is too many laws.

Trust me. I'm a politician.

@realDonaldTrump "Trump" is "leading" in all swing "states." Heavily "biased" Democrat "Poll, just like 20"16." Biggest "enthusiasm" lead "ever" "!"
...There I fixed it for you.

Crave justice. Desire peace. Seek unity. That is the new American way (actually looks a lot like the old American way.)

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

Unless good police are willing to denounce bad police—not just now but always and every day—there will be no justice and no peace. And legislators must stop creating new criminal laws that serve mostly to establish pretexts for confrontation and conflict.
