THL Surpasses 500 Subscribers!

Today The Humble Libertarian hit an important milestone with over 500 subscribers now reading its daily posts about news, current events, and politics from a libertarian perspective! What an incredible honor and pleasure it is for me and my contributors.

Thank you so much to everyone who helped make this happen, especially this website's sponsors who have made it possible for me to grow the site by launching promotional contests and using their contributions to get targeted, paid advertising to the website during these contests and offer the chance to win prizes as an incentive for new visitors to stick around and see what we have to say here.
