“Needless to say, under either system [socialism or fascism], the inequalities of income and standard of living are greater than anything possible under a free economy -- and a man's position is determined, not by his productive ability and achievement, but by political pull and force. Under both systems, sacrifice is invoked as a magic, omnipotent solution in any crisis -- and "the public good" is the altar on which victims are immolated.” MenPoliticalForceAbilityEconomyGreaterMagicSacrificePositionAchievementSolutionsStandardsCrisisVictimDeterminedIncomeSocialismInequalityProductiveFascismAltarsStandards Of LivingOmnipotentPublic GoodFree Economy Book:The Ayn Rand Lexicon: Objectivism from A to Z Source: The Ayn Rand Lexicon: Objectivism from A to Z
“What Mr. Loughner knows is that he has the full support of a major political party in this country ... he knows that ... the Democrat party is attempting to find anybody but him to blame. He knows if he plays his cards right, he's just a victim. ... This guy clearly understands he's getting all the attention and he understands he's got a political party doing everything it can, plus a local sheriff doing everything that they can to make sure he's not convicted of murder -- but something lesser.” IfsKnowsCountryPlayPoliticalGuyPartyAttentionSupportStupidMajorsMurderVictimBlameDemocratLocalsCardsPlusPolitical PartiesThis GuyAttemptingHatefulSheriffs Author:Rush Limbaugh
“Scripture says: "Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted." I call on every American family and the family of America to observe a National Day of Prayer and Remembrance, honoring the memory of the thousands of victims of these brutal attacks and comforting those who lost loved ones. We will persevere through this national tragedy and personal loss. In time, we will find healing and recovery; and, in the face of all this evil, we remain strong and united, "one Nation under God."” HumorAmericaFacesPoliticalEvilLostStrongNationsMemoriesPrayerLossUnitedHealingTragedyVictimBlessedScriptureRecoveryLoved OnesLost LoveBrutalRemembranceComfortingPersevereMournPolitical HumorAmerican FamilyOne Nation Under GodBlessed Are ThoseLost Loved OnesNational Day Of PrayerPersonal Loss Author:George W.
