Page "Leave Us Alone Coalition" Paragraph 3

The term is sometimes also used, in rhetoric and polemics, in contrast to a so-called " Takings Coalition ", whose constituent elements -- such as welfare recipients, government employees, unions, and companies or non-profits benefiting from government contracts, protectionism or other state action -- all depend on government spending, mandates, or preferences for their livelihood, rather than free markets or voluntarism.
