This is a great question and thought process on how do we help the "fool" in society. Here we can understand why the law of liberty is so important for human growth and the development of virtue.
"What would you do, or, what would you prescribe, in order to make a wise man out of a fool?"
~ Duncan J. Frew, The Discovery of the Soul and the Law of Its Development: Philosophical, Biological, Ethical, Historical (1921).

In the aftermath of the American Civil War, personal accounts from soldiers offered raw glimpses into the brutal realities of conflict, far removed from romanticized histories. George Cary Eggleston’s Southern Soldier Stories captures the unvarnished experiences of Confederate troops, emphasizing not just battles but the everyday struggles against scarcity and deprivation. This excerpt from his collection, titled “Random Facts,” vividly illustrates the ingenuity and endurance of Southern soldiers amid profound shortages—of clothing, medicine, ammunition, and even food—highlighting how necessity forged both practical innovations and spiritual resilience. It serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war, where survival often depended on makeshift solutions and unyielding determination.
