Mr. Rothbard nails it.

And , of course, when the socialsts do something, it's always for "the greater good" or some such nonsense.

Daniel, is Vermont part of the U.S. or another planet. If food stamps, aid to dependent children, Section 8 Housing, (un)earned income. etc are not welfare, please tell me what they are. Sure sounds like welfare to me but maybe not on your planet.

I suppose that when the government takes it all, there won't be any tax freedom day or any freedom either.

Bob, what on earth are you talking about. Oh, now I get it, you are from Eugene, the lib capital of the planet, this explains a lot.

Pretty darned accurate and well said.

Can't add much to what J and Mike have said.

Helping someone when no one will find out about it is an example, or aiding someone in distress even if they support Obama.

Suppression of a free and unbiased press would be a disaster for the country. Sad to say we have no such press and what the newspapers print today is mostly liberal propaganda.

He could have had the New York Times and most of the rest of the major news outlets in mind which are sold out to the Libs today.

They have to lend that money and keep the wars going to make it easier to enslave the people.

Waffler, verbosity doesn't equal intelligence as you have amply proven today.

The first line of the quote says it all. Fat chance of that ever happening.

Rahm makes Richard Daley look real good by comparison. Thank God I don't live in Chicago.

This is why government keeps us in a perpetual war.

To see "The Deterioration of American Education" just take a look at the teachers strike in Chicago going on now. Judging from pictures of these striking "teachers", I suspect that the kids are getting a better education with this bunch out of the classroom.
