"Yes, one pays taxes, serves on juries, and obeys laws, but everything else is voluntary -- even voting and serving in the military. The truth is that the United States has a substantial welfare state, and it has grown immensely over the last five decades. Arguably, therefore, citizenship is finding its deepest expression in this private space where individual citizens or groups of citizens take responsibility for one another. This is one of the strongest pillars of a stable democracy." - Condoleezza Rice
