I added these Principles to your list.
Many people could use a list of principles:
I like your list and would put following the same Principles of our
Forefathers first on the list. If we always follow those time honored Principles, everything else falls into pleace.
Here is my list:
13 Key Principles to Prosperity
1) God is the Author or Prosperity
2) Faith begins with self-interest (NOT selfish)
3) Agemcy Implies Stewardship (self reliancce is key)
4) Perspective Determines Action
5) People Are Assets (material thing have no intrinsit value)
6) Human Life Value is the source and creator of All Property Vale (what would property be worth if everyone died?)7
7) Dollars Follow Value/Value Follows Value (dollars are only repesentative of money)
8) Exchange Creates Wealth (wealth is not measured in dollars)
9) Profit is the Tool of Validation (a representation of value created)
10) Productivity is the Standard - of performance (There is NO entitlement!)
11) Force Destroys Freedom and Prosperity (deception and coercion included)
12) Collective Action has no Unique Moral Authority (govt. proves this every day)
13) Personal Liberty Requires Private Property
A good exercise to do with these Principles is to ask… therefore what???
The Real Wealth of a Nation
"6)Human Life Value is the source and creator of All Property Vale (what would property be worth if everyone died?"
Think about this! When all decisions are based on the value of life; we are as a people and a nation richer for it. The powers that control our monetary system control us because we let them. These "powers that be" are not afraid of changing the money system to other coin; they are afraid that WE WILL change the value we place on the money system.
The Real Wealth of a Nation
We can still use the FRNs, we change the value we place on them. We pull all our investments out of the Federal Reserve Banking system and set up our own system. (legally still using the counterfeit notes) This would take some thinking and planning and grassroots spreading but we are a clever group.

I agree wtih everything but #9
I think we just got a big display in how the government ignores the will of the people yesterday.
Truth exists, and it deserves to be cherished.
Not enough yet
We have to continue to educate. When the will of the people is strong enough things will change.

Principles # 11, 12, and 13 speak to that very issue.
