| | Thats no big deal. I'm positive everyone on the internet is kinda pretty sure they know what was meant with the other quote. If you think people will be kinda pretty sure of your meaning and what you changed within a quote, its totally ok. No harm no foul.
As to the quote posted, I've decided I'm looking at this collectivist nonsense in a different perspective. All the talk is about "spreading the wealth" and whatnot. All the healthcare debate revolves around taking someone's money, which they earned by investing part of their life in something, and giving it to someone else to prolong their life. The victim doesn't get that life investment back. The beneficiary receives the fruits of a life that isn't there own. We aren't discussing the morality of "spreading the wealth". We're discussing the morality of spreading the death.

Since nature does not guarantee automatic security, success and survival to any human being, it is only the dictatorial presumptuousness and the moral cannibalism of the altruist-collectivist code that permits a man to suppose (or idly to daydream) that he can somehow guarantee such security to some men at the expense of others.
