Every political system in history has failed because each placed the interests of a government over the natural rights of the individual members making up society. The United States of America was a unique effort, placing the natural rights of human beings at the center and beyond reach of the collective authority. The moment we started defining rights as things which can be given by the power of the state, we began coercing and imposing actions on members of society. We began to compel individuals to act against their own judgement, to force them to turn over wealth and property for things they do not support, to deprive them of property, possessions, and personal values; which was the moment the American system began to decay, along this path America eventually will encounter the failure experienced by its predecessors. Human beings are now simply the means by which government can accomplish its ends.
