Individual and group rights

Our founders understood that democracy in and of itself is not a good thing.

Certainly self-governance is, but the founders said, listen, You have individual rights.

Those rights are not contingent upon what the majority has to say about them.

And so that's what the Bill of Rights is in the Constitution to illustrate, to show us, is to show us what some of our rights, and that's not even all of our rights, what some of our rights are.

In every major city in America, you have people, maybe not as many as in France, but you have people who are waiting for the moment where they can do what you're seeing in Paris.

Some form of communism, perhaps.

But because we are the way we are, that's why we need to avoid central planning.

That's why we need the institutions and the check on balances and the individual rights.

Because we are imperfect.

And this is why there are no solutions.

Sure

... uh, I think the president would be someone who first and foremost saw himself as leading a government that was dedicated to one and only one function, which is the protection of individual rights.

That is the concept that enables you to operate a government that helps structure a society in a way that opens it up for maximum freedom, that allows people to use their minds to create the knowledge and discover the, create the values that they all need to live their own individual lives.

And our current government is anything but limited to that one function of protecting individual rights.

It, it, it is dedicated to anything anybody demands.

We, we have a mixed economy where every pressure group, every interest group has a hand in the pot.

Rational Self-Interest.

And Individual Rights.

Alright everybody, welcome to Yaron Brook Show on this...

And therefore, the government should regulate just like it regulates every other business.
