Real freedom means the least government — government conspicuous by its absence — with sufficient power only to protect life, liberty, and property from frauds, thieves, and murderers. Real freedom means the full right of ownership and to make decisions for one’s self and one’s family.
– John C. Sparks, “Behind the Facade” [1964] |

The Socialism and Fascism of Franklin D. Roosevelt
Everyone is familiar with President Franklin Roosevelt’s embrace of socialism with his adoption of Social Security, a program that originated among socialists in Germany. With Social Security, the government, operating through the IRS, seizes a portion of income from young people and gives it to seniors. Like with all socialist programs, statists claim that Social Security reflects the voluntary compassion of young people. |
