Ever since the 1972 Nixon re-election campaign we have been episodically treated to this peculiar bit of leftwing crackpot paranoia. Of course, the basis for paranoia is denial and projection. It is Roberts and his deranged leftwing cronies who lust for autocratic power.
Yep. Roberts wants to use the power of the state to control the economy. Sounds like a far-left socialist to me.
There were folks on the right who were just SURE that x42 was going to do this in Jan. 2001.
