Everyone Is Entitled To His Own Opinion,

So Many Of The New Nations Which Were Established As Democracies After The Second World War, During The Decolonizing Process, Have Now Changed Their System To State-socialism. Small Elites Run Them, And They Aren't Sharing Societies. They Aren't Even Socialist. The Power Of The State Has Been Merged With Business Property And You Have The Greatest Concentration Of Power That's Possible.

If You Don't Have 30 Years To Devote To Social Policy, Don't Get Involved.

The Work Of Democratic Government Is Routinely Concerned With Matters Defined As Troubles. In "the Presidency And The Press" I Make The Point, Familiar To Anyone Who Has Flown About The World Much, That The Best Quick Test Of The Political Nature Of A Regime Is To Read The Local Papers On Arrival. If They Are Filled With Bad News, You Have Landed In A Libertarian Society Of Some Sort. If, On The Other Hand, The Press Is Filled With Good News, It Is A Fair Bet That The Jails Will Be Filled With Good Men.

One Ideological Claim Is That Private Property Is Theft, That The Natural Product Of The Existence Of Property Is Evil, And That Private Ownership Therefore Should Not Exist... What Those Who Feel This Way Don't Realize Is That Property Is A Notion That Has To Do With Control - That Property Is A System For The Disposal Of Power. The Absence Of Property Almost Always Means The Concentration Of Power In The State.

There Is One Unmistakable Lesson In American History; A Community That Allows A Large Number Of Young Men To Grow Up In Broken Families, Dominated By Women, Never Acquiring Any Stable Relationship To Male Authority, Never Acquiring Any Set Of Rational Expectations About The Future - That Community Asks For And Gets Chaos.
