We see Europe crashing and burning from policies like this and STILL they want to take us down that road. Savage is right; liberalism is a mental disorder.
Lìberalism is a path to total power. Power is incomplete i.e. not total if there are competing sources of power in a society. Wealth beyond an ability to barely feed one’s self and family is such a source of power. It is not a mental disorder though it is amoral and ethical disorder of the gravest sort. Power is a natural ambition of human beings. The Free Market and Religion (Judeo-Christian based, primarily) is defense against total power seeking.
