“The right way is the greatest gratifier of human wishes ever come upon - when allowed to operate. It is as morally sound as the Golden Rule. It is the way of willing exchange, of common consent, of self-responsibility, of open opportunity. It respects the right of each to the product of his labor. It limits the police force to keeping the peace. It is the way of the free market, private property, limited government. On its banner is emblazoned Individual Liberty.” WayHumansSelfGovernmentOpportunityIndividualForceWishSoundCommonResponsibilityLibertyWillingProductsLimitsLaborPolicePropertyGoldenConsentRight WayFree MarketPrivate PropertyLimited GovernmentGolden RuleBannerIndividual LibertyPolice ForceSelf Responsibility Author:Leonard Read
