"Every animal has a way of surviving demanded by it's nature. Man's mind is his basic tool of survival; his essential nature is his rational faculty.

Production is the application of reason to the problem of survival."
-Ayn Rand

- Milton Friedman

"Government has no other end than the preservation of property."
