Civic Outlook

Every individual is owed the facts, whole and exact. Knowledge should reach everyone regardless of rank, and public opinion is defied when it is wrong. A free society stays honest about itself through them.

The individual should be free, and the past binds no one. Property, enterprise and personal choice deserve few limits, and the weight of old things is easily set down. They push a society toward open exchange and new forms.

Life is carried as a weight owed to the whole. The world is read in large blocs with a single account of who is to blame, and gravity is the natural register. They hold a group to its seriousness.

Each person has a place in the established structure and fits into it lightly. Security is valued above freedom, rules are firm, and obligations are kept in balance. A hierarchical society runs without friction because of them.
