Yes! I call it the "Euro-Disease". It's what happens when fear, and egalitarianism overwhelms liberty. Tocqueville saw it as the internal conflict inherent in democracy. Thought it would happen here though - but that was back when Europe was still ruled by kings and queens. They, Canada and Britain took the wrong model - Rousseau - rather than the American Founding Fathers. Too bad.I Like Canada and Canadians otherwise.
Thank you, and Be Well!
