Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

Question with boldness
even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."

Only a little over a decade ago
the centralized planning of the Eastern Bloc was exposed
as having created a squalid, poverty-stricken abyss.
Meanwhile, corrupt running-dog lackeys of the capitalist system
managed to produce a society in which the poorest Americans
have refrigerators, televisions, VCRs, telephones, radios and
67 varieties of orange juice.
But no matter how many good products at low prices
capitalism manages to provide
And no matter how spectacular the failures
of government intervention are,
Some segment of the population continually lists toward
distributing goods and services on the old
Soviet bread-distribution model.
If we ever let these bureaucrats run free,
stores everywhere would run with the smooth Austrian precision
of the Department of Motor Vehicles.
- quote from Ann Coulter

"Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of state education. Then the socialists say that we are opposed to any education. We object to a state religion. Then the socialists say that we want no religion at all. We object to a state-enforced equality. Then they say that we are against equality. And so on, and so on. It is as if the socialists were to accuse us of not wanting persons to eat because we do not want the state to raise grain."

If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them (around the banks), will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.
