I’ve just started reading this “textbook” which explains conservatism in terms even liberals can understand.
The modern liberal believes in the supremacy of the state…
Levine describes the modern liberal as a “statist.” Our founding fathers knew that the greatest threat to freedom and liberty is an all powerfull central government.
Keep your eyes open and watch closely what is happening in Washington. As Washington gains more control, there is a direct correlation with loss of individual freedom. Obama is a statist and believes that an individual’s imperfection and personal pursuits impede his objective of achieving a utopian state which is ever mindful of bringing down achievers and redistributing wealth on a global scale. This will make it “fair” and we can all “feel” good about our attempts to punish the successful. It’s the evil corporations and CEO’s that have corrupted our society. Never mind that they create jobs which create wealth and put people to work. Wake up and see the great deception that is unfolding before our eyes.
Obama wants Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid to manage your health care, the car industry, banking and much much more. They want to control the temperature, the winds and the rain. America was built on rugged individualism and we should not tamper with God given rights. Just as our founding fathers stated so well.
I’ll have more to say about this book as I continue reading. I’d encourage everyone to read the book whether you agree with conservatism or not. The truth is the truth. What are you telling yourself?
