Collectivism is any philosophic, political, religious, economic, or social outlook that emphasizes the interdependence of every human being.

To put it more simply: No man is an island. The idea that people are not isolated from one another, but that mankind is interconnected. It was one of great ideas of the Renaissance.

Proud to be labeled a "collectivist." :thumbsup:

How bout it...The willingness to cooperate with eachother is what seperates us from the F-ing animals. Somehow they got these brain dead drones to see it as a bad thing- because when people work together they become powerfull and big money doesn't want us to have any power.

Traitors!

col·lec·tiv·ism (k-lkt-vzm)

The principles or system of ownership and control of the means of production and distribution by the people collectively, usually under the supervision of a government.

collectivism

Any of several types of social organization that ascribe central importance to the groups to which individuals belong (e.g., state, nation, ethnic group, or social class). It may be contrasted with individualism. Jean-Jacques Rousseau was the first modern philosopher to discuss it (1762). Karl Marx was its most forceful proponent in the 19th century. Communism, fascism, and socialism may all be termed collectivist systems. See also communitarianism; kibbutz; moshav.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

I dunno VL, but it seems to me that the foundation upon which our union is built is more closely aligned with the rights of the individual than the rights of the collective.

I'd outlive you - not a single question in my mind about that.
