Few exceprts of Hegel's seminal 'historical birth of democracy, socialism, and communism'-work 'The Philosophy of Right' which I got from a deacon whilst residing in the brutal ancient suburbs of The District of Columbia:
(for your morning east-coast-class easy tgif consumption alongst with yr coffee/tea)
I'd like to preface this short commentary on the due course of individualism (as defined properly) within an increasingly collectivist society by saying that I've read all 4 or 5 hundred pages of Hegel's 'Phenomenology', a work of purely passionate Protestant philosophy generally defined as highly 'collectivist' in ideology.
It's a great read, let me tell you.

"Hegel Rocks the Politalk"
exceprts: 3, in the traditional Hegel style.
111. Paragraph 174.
Man has to acquire for himself the position which he aught to attain; he is not already in possession of it by instinct. It is on this fact that the child's right to education is based.
109. Paragraph 168.
A sense of shame-to go no farther-is a bar to consanguineous marraige. But this repugnance finds justification in the concept of the thing. What is already united, I mean, cannot be united for the first time by marraige.

The oversight and care excerised by the public authority aims at being a middle term between an individual and the universal posibility, afforded by society, of attaining individual ends. It has to undertake street-lighting, bridge building, the pricing of daily necessaries, and the #GET THIS vie OBAMACARE 'LIKE "WOAH"'~ care of public health.

In this connexion, two main views predominate at the present time. One asserts that the superintendence of everything properly belongs to the public authority.
