They’re dragging us, our children, and grandchildren off into slavery,
and are offended that we’re mad about it.
Totally nailed it!
From an old thread with a booklet from 1939 about FDR and the New Deal. This is a “brief” excerpt (caps are mine). The ENTIRE booklet could have been written yesterday!!

PROBLEM SIX THE DOMESTICATION OF THE INDIVIDUAL
....But it was as if in every case the question was, “Which course of action will tend more to increase the dependence of the individual upon the Federal government?” .....
No individual life escaped, unless it was that of a desert rat or cave dweller....
When New Dealers speak in one breath of a welfare economy and with the next breath bitterly denounce pressure groups it may seem that they involve themselves in an ironical dilemma. It is easy to say: “What would you expect, since you have made division of the national income a matter of political bargaining where before it had been always a matter of economic bargaining?”
Yet they are right, the New Dealers. In the welfare state pressure groups, representing willful political action, cannot be tolerated. THEY WILL HAVE TO BE SUPPRESSED at last, because in the welfare state the government cannot really guarantee social security until it goes to the logical end, which is to ration the national income in time of peace just as all goods and satisfactions are rationed in time of war.
The sick thing about these monsters is that they expect us to applaud their tyranny.
