My favorite Hayek quote is, “ . . . the most important change which extensive government control produces is a psychological change, an alteration of the character of the people. This means, among other things, that even a strong tradition of political liberty is no safeguard if the danger is precisely that new institutions and policies will gradually undermine and destroy that spirit.”
Love that quote. I don’t have my copy of the Road to Serfdom in front of me so I will paraphrase mine: Without economic freedom there is no political freedom.
