Liberty and Tyrany
I have this book and am trying to read it but it is painful to me. His reasoning is not persuasive. His style is too stiff and serious. I prefer Mark Steyn. I do not worship the constitution as a sacred book. Besides, that argument was lost fifty years ago. The world of 1776 is 250 years gone. Things change.
But some things do not really change . . . like human nature. There are consequences for everything. People act in accordance with how society structures rewards and punishments.
My belief is that we live in a democratic country and people get what they vote for. In other words, the majority will get what it asks for. I'll get by no matter who is in charge.
