In their case, every one of their beliefs just so happens to redound to an increase in the power of the state, from Keynesian economics to global warming to socialized medicine and all the rest.

It almost looks like they are at war with us, and reality for that matter. <br /><br />I've often thought that was the case in the economic realm where Keynes was crowned, not because he was right, but because his bogus analysis justified what FDR and the brain trust wanted to do anyway.<br /><br />They have had the advantage because we have thought they were mistaken and could be educated or corrected, when the ones at the controls could care less whether they were right or not, as long as it gave them power.mushroomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651027035577798096noreply@blogger.com
