The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.
-- Sarah Palin
The
essential characteristic of socialism is the denial of individual
property rights; under socialism, the right to property (which is the
right of use and disposal) is vested in “society as a whole,” i.e., in
the collective, with production and distribution controlled by the
state, i.e., by the government.
-- Ayn Rand
There is a cult
of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain
of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way
through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion
that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your
knowledge."
