Why take action? Because you could get free stuff.

By Bonnie Kristian, on February 1, 2010

What kind of free stuff?  Stuff which will strengthen your committment to liberty and improve your activism. 

For instance, attendees of the Leadership Institute's Youth Leadership School (YLS) have repeated chances throughout the training to win free books from the Read to Lead list.  That list includes a number of great titles:

I'm personally a big fan of Economics in One Lesson -- reading it was my first introduction to the basic principles of Austrian economics, as well as the problems associated with government intervention in the economy.

The possibility of getting these books is just one example, however, of the many benefits of activism.  This is the final post in a series of no less than 36 benefits of activism -- activism which you can do right on your campus.  Take a look at the other 35:
