“From the time of the North Briton of the unprincipled Wilkes , a notion has been entertained that the moral spine in Scotland is more flexible than in England. The truth however is, that an elementary difference exists in the public feelings of the two nations quite as great as in the idioms of their respective dialects. The English are a justice-loving people, according to charter and statute; the Scotch are a wrong-resenting race, according to right and feeling: and the character of liberty among them takes its aspect from that peculiarity.” PeopleHas BeensTwoCharacterFeelingsNationsDifferencesJusticeRaceLibertyMoralAspectEnglandNotionScotlandFlexibleSpineCharterScotchDialectStatutesIdiomBritonsTwo Nations Author:John Galt
“While the US Constitution marks these programs as illegal, my government argues that secret court rulings, which the world is not permitted to see, somehow legitimize an illegal affair.

“Oliver Wendell Holmes said, "Think things, not words." In words, many see a need for "social justice" to override "the dictates of the market." In reality, what is called "the market" consists of human beings making their own choices at their own cost. What is called "social justice" is government imposition of the notions of third parties, who pay no price for being wrong.” ThinkingNeedsHumansSaidRealityGovernmentChoicesSocialJusticeHuman BeingsPartyPayCostThirdsSocial JusticeNotionHolmesBeing WrongImpositionThird Parties Author:Thomas Sowell
