"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Liberty Delivers a Better World While Utopians Promise a Perfect One
Submitted by Westernerd on Thu, 2013-09-26 03:00
Why are unattainable utopian visions attractive and inspirational while the promises of liberty are often disregarded? Defending liberty requires seeing the unseen good that can only be accomplished by freeing people’s ability to peacefully create and innovate. With such vision, liberty is far more inspirational than any statist alternative.
