Chase Oliver on War & Peace

Focus on peace; end policy of constant intervention
My entire adult life, our nation has been at war somewhere in the world. I have friends and loved ones who have served, and come home with the visible and invisible scars of combat. I've seen them mourn their brothers and sisters who didn't come home.
I meet more and more anti-war veterans every day, and they know more than anyone about the cost of war. It's time we focus our foreign policy on Peace.
We should end our policy of sending drones around the world and instead foster international goodwill by defending free trade and free markets. Our nation has long had the moniker 'leader of the free world.' It is time we earn that distinction by
insisting that Peace is the way forward. End the wars. End the drones. End the policy of constant intervention. It's easy to drop a bomb, it's much harder to serve as a beacon of Peace. We must take the more difficult but necessary path.

Began political activism opposing the war in Iraq
The Libertarian activist, who began his political activism opposing the war in Iraq under former President George W. Bush, sees a political landscape ripe for a third-party candidate to make
waves--one in which many voters don't want to see a rematch between Republican former President Donald Trump and Democratic incumbent President Joe Biden.
"The duopoly is going to gift us with a Trump versus Biden 2.0 election, and that's going to allow millions of voters to feel dissatisfied and to look for something alternative,"
Oliver told a group of eight people gathered Sunday at RAYGUN in Cedar Rapids for a meet-and-greet event with Linn County Libertarians.
