    ``Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom,  Democracy attaches
    all possible value to each man, while socialism makes each man a mere
    agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but
    one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks
    equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.''
       de Tocqueville == 1848
