Ayn Rand on Group Rights

"Any group or “collective,” large or small, is only a number of individuals. A
group can have no rights other than the rights of its individual members. In a
free society, the “rights” of any group are derived from the rights of its
members through their voluntary individual choice and contractual agreement,
and are merely the application of these individual rights to a specific
undertaking... A group, as such, has no rights."
-- Ayn Rand
