Is Not Liberty The Destruction Of All

Society Is Composed Of Men, And Every Man Is A Free Agent. Since Man Is Free, He Can Choose; Since He Can Choose, He Can Err; Since He Can Err, He Can Suffer. I Go Further: He Must Err And He Must Suffer; For His Starting Point Is Ignorance, And In His Ignorance He Sees Before Him An Infinite Number Of Unknown Roads, All Of Which Save One Lead To Error.

If Goods Don't Cross Borders, Armies Will.

If Socialists Mean That Under Extraordinary Circumstances, For Urgent Cases, The State Should Set Aside Some Resources To Assist Certain Unfortunate People, To Help Them Adjust To Changing Conditions, We Will, Of Course, Agree. This Is Done Now; We Desire That It Be Done Better. There Is However, A Point On This Road That Must Not Be Passed; It Is The Point Where Governmental Foresight Would Step In To Replace Individual Foresight And Thus Destroy It.

But We Assure The Socialists That We Repudiate Only Forced Organization, Not Natural Organization. We Repudiate The Forms Of Association That Are Forced Upon Us, Not Free Association. We Repudiate Forced Fraternity, Not True Fraternity. We Repudiate The Artificial Unity That Does Nothing More Than Deprive Persons Of Individual Responsibility. We Do Not Repudiate The Natural Unity Of Mankind Under Providence.

Slavery, Protection, And Monopoly Find Defenders, Not Only In Those Who Profit By Them, But In Those Who Suffer By Them.
