It is important to understand this is not simply a mistake of ‘causation by correlation.’ In other words, it is not that we observe historically that all collectivist enterprises fail miserably and thus make the leap of logic to say the coincidence of these events necessarily makes collectivism the cause of the failure…
I have struggled with whether or not to share my own choice and the reasons for it, because I recognize the diversity of our readership, and want to respect it.
