Be sure and read the whole thing.Apprehensive voters dread turning their hard-won and paid-for private health care plans into something like the emergency room on Saturday night, where the care reflects the chaos. The new anti-Obamians do not want industry run like the Department of Motor Vehicles, where most time and money are invested mostly in those who do not follow the rules like registering their cars or getting a driver’s license. And it is not just the waste, inefficiency, and lack of accountability inherent in government-run enterprises that bother the growing cadre of angry voters.
There is, again, a mounting anxiety that the current federal expansion is politically-driven in rather radical ways—an effort to create a permanent new constituency of millions who either receive expanded federal largess or are gleefully employed in doling it out. The zealotry of expansive bureaucracy and dependency instills fears, rational or not, of a radicalized huge federal work force, a sort of national version of Acorn to the nth degree that in pack-like fashion is mobilized to target potential naysayers.

Checked you out because of Gunslinger.Great to see.Anyway, Hanson is a heckuva book writer/lecturer on war,culture...perspective is the key! As to "Spectrum" post.I've recently read a bio on Mussolini (by Farrell) and a couple of others,where they really tie themselves in knots over the whole Left/Right/Fascist/Nazi thang.Bottom-line to me,is whether "they" are just gangsters out for power over "the little guy".Their polemics are merely subterfuge.
