ok i cannot except that individual rights are more important. this country has been recognizing and letting individual rights and those of the minority rule the land for much too long now. used to be in this country when the majority spoke the minority listened. now all i have to do is complain to the ACLU and i can get that desicion overturned.

when individual rights are made most important you will eventualy deteriorate into anarchy.

even in a democracy you must give up some things make things good for everyone. not just you.
yokinazu Reviewed by yokinazu on . are we to be free? with all the talk of socialism in america and the growing governmental control over our relatively free marketplace, i feel the need to ask those of you on these boards a rather basic question. is the individual an important component of american political philosophy or is the will of the people of paramount concern? this country has always led the world in its pursuit of the rights of the individual, understanding that the price we pay for those rights is a tumultuous life at best. as Rating: 5
