Saying everyone is special is the same as saying no one is special.

Capitalism is, by its very nature, compassionate. It requires each person to look around to determine what needs exist and then find ways to satisfy those needs. It is therefore necessary to “feel with” your fellow citizens. Socialism, on the other hand, is necessarily hard-hearted. It requires its citizens to ignore their fellow citizens’ needs and allow the government to not only define needs but to dictate the means, if any, by which such needs shall be met.

Winston Churchill:

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery"
