Democracy is meaningless unless individual human beings own the fruits of their hard work, good decisions, and responsible acts. Without this fundamental human right, the mob can take whatever it wants from those in society who work hard, prepare themselves to make good decisions, and show the self-discipline to act responsibly. When the mob robs society of these positive human contributions to society, all of society suffers.

Nothing is perfect, not even our country. There is no utopia on this earth. Freedom and property rights are never "ideal." We must fight and scrap to keep what we have, and help others to do the same.

Moreover, as pseudo-democracies expand, and as life gets relatively easier, our own people will come to take for granted what has been earned by our forebears.

The fight for freedom never ends.
