Sippican Cottage demonstrates the proper use of rugged individualism - here. Excerpts here:
"Dynamism is what happens when politicians aren't paying attention."
"The industrial revolution in England happened because the landed gentry wasn't paying attention. They scoffed at the importance of guys with grease under their fingernails right up until the greasy guys' clout --political, monetary, cultural-- eclipsed their own, and there was nothing they could do to put the genie back in the bottle. It was the same in America. When we just paved the roads and didn't worry too much about what was going on in all the sheds, America ran wild economically."
