Some Infrequently Asked Questions
- What does qwibit mean?
- Qwibit stands for "Question WIth Boldness". Well, that's what QWIB stands for, anyways. It was inspired by a letter written by Thomas Jefferson where he urged to "Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear."
- Who founded the website?
- Chadwyck Bolender founded this website in 2009.
- Why?
- I love to read news from a libertarian perspective. While it is VERY valuable to read articles written from a dissenting point of view, sometimes it's nice to read items are friendly to the cause of libertarianism.
- Is this a Libertarian website?
- Yes and no. This website is not affiliated with the Libertarian Party, a political party in the United States. Rather, QWiBit.com is dedicated to free markets and civil liberties. In that regard, the LP and QWiBit may be in frequent agreement, but are not related.
