Since force destroys freedom, force and freedom are
completely incompatible. The only power unique to government is the legal use
of freedom-destroying force. Therefore,
government cannot produce freedom without at the same time destroying that which
it is trying to produce. Only the
principle of reciprocity (Treating others as you would like to be treated) can create true freedom.
When reciprocity is practiced in great measure, people
attend to each other, obviating the need for government, and optimizing freedom and the welfare of the people. The principles of freedom and reciprocity are inseparable and essential for the welfare of the citizenry. (see the web site goldencharacter.org)
