The true living political spectrum is "command and control" on one side and anarchy on the other side.
Liberty and Freedom are just to one side of anarchy - definitely closer than most of us are comfortable with.
The struggle of control-freaks vs. those who would rule themselves is recorded throughout history.
Of course one needs a viable internal "moral code" to survive in Liberty. "Bad" people need to be ruled or...our old friend chaos arrives.
