Reader comments about this quote:
Not shooting the messenger here specifically BUT, Wilson's oxymoronic double speak out of both sides of his mouth doesn't quite flow consistent. Liberty / freedom and inalienable rights at nature's law are inherent in the individual (as a faculty of birth through fruition of life's sojourn). What purpose / honor is this anti-freedom socialist referring to? A common end? What narrow interest  AT LAW  is being referenced?
