“Economic planning, regulation, and intervention pave the way to totalitarianism by building a power structure that will inevitably be seized by the most power-hungry and unscrupulous.”
Friedrich Hayek

Confucius
“Arbitrary government power is being multiplied daily by the now practically unchallenged assumption that wherever there is any problem of any kind to be solved, government is the agency to step in and solve it.”
Henry Hazlitt

“If you vote, you have no right to complain. You wanted a master, and you got one.”
George Carlin
I thought I’d heard every word he ever wrote or spoke, then this nugget hits me. The guy still blows me away a decade after he died.
Funny, how in arguments about political decisions, those who vote frequently spout the exact opposite stance.
“If you didn’t vote, then you have no right to bitch about the results, or the affective changes the ballot winners implement.”
And in a similar vein, another one is when ProgLibs notice someone’s even modest support of Trump over any Dem, the assumption is that person voted for DJT.
Ditto, if supportive of conservative / Traditionalist policies over progressive / collectivist ideals.
Some even on this site are plagued by the notion that if you don’t support every Trump policy, then you obviously supported Hillary. The desperate need to pigeonhole and dismiss seems to be inherent in most.
