Director, Australian Institute for Progress
We believe in a better future based on:
Individual freedom
Individual responsibility
Individual rights
Material and social progress
Civil society before government
We believe that government should be:
The scaffold which supports this future
As small and efficient as possible
We believe in Enlightenment values:
Facts matter
There is right and wrong
Knowledge and understanding of our culture is the birthright of all Australians
Truths that aren’t challenged can’t be relied upon
We acknowledge that some people will fail and government has a role to:
Support those who have no other means of support
Only to the extent that they are genuinely unable to support themselves
Ensure their opportunity and motivation to rejoin society is as large as possible
