America was not founded to improve health care or housing; it was founded for freedom.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
America was established not to create wealth but to realize a vision, to realize an ideal - to discover and maintain liberty among men.
America's health care system is neither healthy, caring, nor a system.
But America was founded on the principle that every person has God-given rights. That power belongs to the people. That government exists to protect our rights and serve our interests. That we shouldn't be trapped in the circumstances of our birth. That we should be free to go as far as our talents and work can take us.
Americans chose a limited government that exists to protect our rights, not to grant them.
America doesn't have health insurance.
I don't believe we have defined health care reform very well in this country.
America wasn't founded so that we could all be better. America was founded so we could all be anything we damned well pleased.
American government did not originate in any abstract theories about liberty and equality, but in the actual experience gained by generation after generation of English colonists in managing their own political affairs. The Revolution did not make a breach in the continuity of their institutional life.
Our country's founders cherished liberty, not democracy.
As I understand the American Founders, the most brilliant and daring idea they had was that it's possible to create a free society that could stay free forever.
