Collectivists

Call it collectivism, socialism, or tyranny, I don't like it. I believe in individual freedoms, to the maximum extent possible.

Collectivist Presidential Candidates:

The Cato Institute's David Boaz thinks Barrack Obama is a collectivist. But Republicans should take note: He thinks John McCain is a collectivist too. In their campaign speeches, Boaz notes, both candidates discourage the individual pursuit of happiness, particularly if it has anything to do with money. They disparage success in business or economic pursuits, implicitly denigrating those who have done the most to ensure this nation's prosperity and wealth.

No poor man ever offered me a job.
