"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
When Basic Services Are Guaranteed As A “Right”

"All too often, when well-meaning people say a particular need should be a “basic human right,” what that means is that the average person gets that need for “free” — but they get it as defined by the authoritarian institutions and professional priesthoods that deliver that service. The nationalization and public financing serve mainly to lock in that institutional culture permanently, and make it difficult at best for the individual to escape that institutional model of service whether they actually want it or not."
