Walter Williams' short column "Many of Today's Americans Love Government" is in the on-line Capitalism Magazine. It is a gem of a little article that reaches from a fun Bertrand Russell quote to the trojan horse used by Hitler to gain power all the way to today's danger associated with Obama's charisma.

Thanks for the link to this excellent article, Steve. Sanctioned it.

My favorite line? "If they privately took someone's earnings to give to a farmer, college student or senior citizen, they would be hunted down as thieves and carted off to jail. However, they get Congress to do the identical thing, through its taxing power, and they are seen as compassionate and caring."
