I just don’t get the attraction to centrally governing all citizens — it’s a idea that’s completely #’d up. Newt has been on this road for a while, so I’m not surprised he’s waving the Federal health care flag. It’s a shame though, he had a particular Conservative trait that he articulated well. Unfortunately, his appeal towards Socialism trumps his flirtations with Liberty.
He makes Ron Paul look even better.
‘I just don’t get the attraction to centrally governing all citizens...’
Existential unceratainty and fear are as old as Mankind.
Especially in view of the absence of religious faith, many want to substitute an all powerful government for an all powerful God.
Unfortunately, government is unlimited in stupidity and incompetence; God, meanwhile, is unlimited in knowledge, wisdom, and insight.
