Arthur C. Brooks of the American Enterprise Institute writes today in the WSJ that economic liberty is not just the most efficient way to manage an economy -- far better than five, or five hundred forty-five, or fifty-five thousand five hundred forty-five wise guys in rooms in Washington, DC -- because it allows everyone the opportunity for the greatest individual economic satisfaction of all: earned success.
Our former economic system of free enterprise capitalism came in two parts: the right to the pursuit of happiness, and the right to keep what you catch!
Progressivist governments like the social democracies of Europe -- which Obama and his Progressivist backers want the United States to emulate -- stifle the earned success of economic liberty by establishing a reign of dependency.
There is nothing progressive about Progressivism. It is the ideology of the lord and his serfs, of the aristocrat and his vassals, and of the commissar and the proletariat.
We must defeat it now! We must.
I encourage you to exert your every influence and your every power toward that end.
