“Don’t mess with patriots in the land of Opportunity; we run faster, we sing better, and we are packing.”

An essay of Libertarianism by my fellow Barabooian, Tim Kepple. An excerpt:
This is a story about two nations with two very different ideas about equality. One nation is named Opportunity, and the other is called Outcome.
When they run a 100-yard dash in Opportunity, everyone starts at the same time and place and runs the same distance – they call that equality in the land of Opportunity. No two people finish exactly the same because some people run faster than others; that’s how God made them.
When they run the 100-yard dash in Outcome, however, everyone finishes exactly the same.
