The first is freedom of speech and expression ... everywhere in the world.
The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way ... everywhere in the world.
The third is freedom from want... which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants ... everywhere in the world.
The fourth is freedom from fear... which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of aggression against any neighbor ... anywhere in the world.
Responsible individuals are the building blocks of a open, honest and free society.
Five of the Ten Commandments are the keys to personal responsibility:
Do not kill other people and respect all living things. Survival in self-defense, the food chain and life threating bacteria, viruses, vermin & insects are exceptions.
Do not steal. EARN whatever it is you want by your own honest labor by doing anything legal. Show respect for the property of others!
Do not lie and deal only in truth. Even a 'little white lie' disrespects one's self and will come back to haunt. Face the truth head-on and do not FEAR it! Learm more about FEAR!
Do not commit adultery. One inherently knows right from wrong. Resist temptation. Think about children --first! One must learn self control!
Do not covet that which is your neighbor's. Understand that unfair advantage gained such as cheating in school & business, advocating special interest laws and targeted taxation and so on are simply dishonest. LIVE The Golden Rule!
Respect the parents who gave them life. Repay the love and care once received with kindness and respect.
"We are what we repeatedly do; excellence, then, is not an act but a habit."
– Aristotle, BC 384-322, Greek Philosopher

Individual Freedom -- where every human being is important, especially from the point of view of law and politics, as a sovereign individual, not living by the permission of the government or some master or lord.
Private Property -- where each person has the basic right to retain honestly earned private property and the freedom to choose to associate with others on his or her own terms - whether for economic, artistic, religious, or romantic purposes.
Limited Government -- where the role of government in a free society is to settle disputes and maintain public order with the protection of citizens collectively delegated as the primary responsibility of a federal government headed by an elected president or other leader.
Free Trade -- where everyone has the basic right to engage in free trade - as in any other kind of peaceful action, even when his or her particular decision may not be the wisest or even morally exemplary.

1. Five Star Citizens are FEARLESS!
Containing the power hungry people amongst us is an individual responsibility. Why? Because there will always be people who seek to gain power and control over the lives of others. Do NOT fear them ... control them! Learm more about FEAR and how to become fearless!
2. Five Star Citizens know HISTORY!
History is the study of change over time. So why history so important? Because the only sure thing in life is change. History has proven that those who do not pay attention to the lessons of history will repeat the mistakes. So, a sense of history is crucial to good decision making in managing the inevitable changes in societies.
3. Five Star Citizens THINK!
Informed citizens study all sides of an issue. Why vote at all if your vote has been bought or influenced by someone else? Thinking people refuse to take politically motivated advertising too seriously or permit undue influence by all media and special interest groups.
4. Five Star Citizens VOTE!
It is the duty of every citizen to secure rights and freedoms by participating in the affairs of their countries. They keep up with current affairs and view them with an open mind.
In reality, when citizens do not participate to the fullest extent of their opportunity to select their leadership, the actual percentage of the population that selects the winner of a campaign is just FOUR (4) per cent. Avoid smoke-filled, back room politics, get involved!
5. Five Star Citizens use their CLOUT!
Individuals CAN and DO have influence -- IF they make themselves heard.
Make it a point to write or call elected officials and the centers of influence who shape public opinion ... like talk shows, networks, newspapers, magazines and the Internet.
