“Although libertarians might cringe a bit at this repeated confusion of the egalitarianism-driven French ‘revolution’ with its libertarian predecessor in America, the sentiment is nevertheless well stated. If we do not maintain the focus of liberty first, and pursue these laudable yet subsidiary goals only in that context, we will soon have lost all hope of having any of them at all. Anything else is as dangerous as the other major confusion in our society today: the blurring of ‘democracy’ with the means of establishing the zone of individual sovereignty that must exist before true personal liberty can be attained.” (11/02/05) Link: http://www.fmnn.com/Analysis/136/2798/2005-11-02.asp?wid=136&nid=2798 Filed under: PND Commentary and RRND Commentary | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
