"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

Submitted by Christopher Lempa on Sat, 2007-11-17 17:00
"Imagine the following person. He believes all individuals should be free to do 'anything that's peaceful' and therefore favors private property, free global markets, freedom of contract, civil liberties, and all the related ideas that come under the label 'libertarianism' (or liberalism). Obviously he is not a statist. But is he an individualist and a capitalist or a socialist and a collectivist?"
