The Plans Differ; The Planners Are 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.

Justice Is Achieved Only When Injustice Is Absent.

[socialists Claim] That We Reject Fraternity, Solidarity, Organization, And Association; And They Brand Us With The Name Of Individualists. We Can Assure Them That What We Repudiate Is Not Natural Organization, But Forced Organization. It Is Not Free Association, But The Forms Of Association That They Would Impose Upon Us. It Is Not Spontaneous Fraternity, But Legal Fraternity. It Is Not Providential Solidarity, But Artificial Solidarity, Which Is Only An Unjust Displacement Of Responsibility. Socialism . . . Confounds Government And Society.

People Are Beginning To Realize That The Apparatus Of Government Is Costly. But What They Do Not Know Is That The Burden Falls Inevitably On Them.

When Goods Do Not Cross Borders, Soldiers Will.
