Libertarian Tim Wilson finally manages to get government out of his life – The Shovel

After years of fighting to reduce the size of government and get public institutions out of peoples lives, Tim Wilson has finally managed to rid himself of the government once and for all, by spectacularly losing the blue-ribbon seat of Goldstein.

Wilson, who was once a policy director at the libertarian think tank The Institute of Public Affairs, said it was a relief to get soundly beaten in the election. For years Ive used my position as a paid-up employee of the government to argue that we need to lessen our reliance on government. So itll be a massive relief to no longer receive a $250k salary from the state, he said.

Every single day for the last six years or more Ive had the government right up in my life. Its suffocating! At some points its been so intrusive that its felt like Ive actually been part of the government!

He said he had always been against a welfare state. Take a moment to think what its been like for me, totally dependent on the government to pay for my travel, my accommodation, my expenses. Its exhausting!

Mr Wilson is expected to last around 2-3 weeks before seeking another government funded position.
