===4. FINANCE AND CAPITAL INVESTMENT=== | |||
We call for the abolition of all regulation of financial and capital | |||
markets. Specifically, we demand the abolition of the tyrannical | |||
Securities and Exchange Commission, of state "Blue Sky" laws which | |||
repress small and risky capital ventures, and of all federal | |||
regulation of commodity markets. We oppose any attempts to ban or | |||
regulate such innovative financial devices as investing in | |||
stock-market index futures. | |||
We call for repeal of all laws based on the muddled concept of insider | |||
trading. What should be punished is the theft of information or | |||
breach of contract to hold information in confidence, not trading on | |||
the basis of valuable knowledge. We support the right of third | |||
parties to make stock purchase tender offers to stockholders over the | |||
opposition of entrenched management, and oppose all laws restricting | |||
such offers. | |||

===11. OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT (OSHA)=== | |||
We call for the repeal of the Occupational Safety and Health Act. | |||
This law denies the right to liberty and property to both employer and | |||
employee, and it interferes in their private contractual relations. | |||
OSHA's arbitrary and high-handed actions invade property rights, raise | |||
costs, and are an injustice imposed on business. | |||

====4. WORLD GOVERNMENT==== | |||
We support withdrawal of the United States government from, and an end | |||
to its financial support for, the United Nations. We oppose U.S. | |||
government participation in any world or international government. | |||
