He believes that the First Amendment’s free-speech protections need to be revamped in favor of more government regulation. This is right in keeping with the Obama administration’s attempts to marginalize the anti-tax Tea Parties that have sprouted up around the country. Indeed, Sunstein believes that “without taxes there would be no liberty.” I guess our Founding Fathers were just plain wrong when they started a whole revolution over taxes and the right to protest them freely.
