Barack Obama’s incessant call for sacrifice by US citizens is an affront to the Constitution. Free individuals are not a resource to be called upon to serve at the behest of the President for the government’s grand designs. Instead, it is the government, which has been instituted for the explicit purpose of serving the needs of its citizens in protecting their rights. By elevating the purpose and value of “government” or “society” above that of the the citizen, Obama perverts the fundamental principle of the Constitution, substituting collectivism in place of individualism.
