Ari and Linn Armstrong published a column in the Grand Junction Free Press about the then-upcoming OCON two weeks ago: Happy birthday, Atlas Shrugged. Also, Ari has altered his “Liberty and Prosperity Challenge” in ways that might of be interest:
As many of you have read, in response to calls to increase tax spending on food stamps, my wife and I proposed the six-month “Serious Food Economy Challenge,” during which my wife and I were prepared to spend no more than $3 per person per day on food. However, for every dollar we came in under budget, advocates of higher food-stamp spending had to donate $10 to our nonprofit of choice. The minimum amount to activate the challenge was $2,000. Unfortunately, only two people responded, pledging $200 combined.
