And anybody who does not want an office badly enough to run for it probably shouldn’t have it, either.

Instead it is usually received like a diploma, an anticlimax that never seems worth the struggle to earn it.

Socialism, leftism, liberalism not only doesn't respect the unique abilities of free people; it attempts to quash them and to eliminate them. Because it's unfair not only to have more than somebody else, it's unfair to be better than anybody else at whatever you do. That's not fair.

We punish achievement if liberalism and leftism rules the day. But capitalism is where the respect for unique abilities and freedom resides.
