Dr. Pieder Beeli for Ogden City Council

Dr. Thomas Sowell indicates that in politics, there are no solutions. Only tradeoffs.

The same good Doctor indicates that typical political objectives are not generally subject to the question, “At what cost are these objectives expected to incur?”

In contrast to the mayor’s plan for Ogden, which does not meaningfully address the costs to his political objectives, I propose the following tradeoffs

• Which option will better ensure Ogden’s success?
  • A: Have the government take a large amount of money from some in the community and give it to others?
  • B: Develop a community of Ogdenite entrepreneurs who experience the joy of wealth creation, financial freedom and the natural interdependence that this work creates?
• Which is a better gesture of love?
  • A.    Affirming the current decision regardless of negative personal and external consequences.
  • B.    Encouraging direction change to a more life and soul fulfilling paradigm and helping them do it.
• Would you like your property taxes to be
  • A: The highest in Weber county?
  • B: The lowest in the country?
• Would you prefer Ogden to be known for
  • A: its history with prostitution, gang culture, housing crises, and general illegality?
  • B: having strong families where the gold standard of romance–couples saving themselves for life-long marriage–provides a fulfilling and enduring platform which populates a productive and entrepreneurially oriented Ogden?

If you answered “B” to these questions, it may be time to Beelieve that Dr. Pieder Beeli can help to guide Ogden to better heights.
