O knihe

"...under the umbrella of "liberals" or "liberalism;" (as used today); there are actually two separate and distinct groups:
"True liberals believe very much in what they promulgate. They are truly concerned with the welfare of citizens, and they believe in policies that will benefit the same-at least in their view. There are neither nefarious purposes, nor any intellectual dishonesty. Their objective is to improve the quality of life (and longevity), for as many people as possible.
"...Conservatives and liberals can often agree on the ends; but vastly disagree on the means. Giving a hungry person a fish is kind; but to conservatives, teaching him how to fish seems to be a better long term solution. It is not that conservatives object to the temporary giving of the fish; but rather they object to not teaching him how to fish.
"True liberals believe in the dignity of man; and promulgate policies in furtherance of this belief.
"Statists; the other group usually and often erroneously grouped under the "liberal" umbrella; are another matter. It is because of agreements with liberal policy that they are usually grouped under this liberal umbrella; but their motivations, purposes and beliefs are entirely different-arguably antithetical-to true liberalism."
Why should liberals read "Statists Saving One?"
To understand that many who may appear to agree with your means, have entirely different ends in sight; and that these ends are antithetical to liberalism. True liberalism and statism are entirely incompatible. And all along you thought they were your friends.
Why should conservatives read "Statists Saving One?"
To understand the difference between liberals and statists; and end the confusion. Many liberals agree with many conservative ends, merely proffering a different means to achieve them. But statists have entirely different ends in sight-no matter whom they may appear to agree with at any given time.
Why should statists read "Statists Saving One?"
To understand the true motivations behind statism; and decide if continued actions are wise. The masquerade is now over. Either change, or "pack up and go home" while you can; as it will never become any easier in any current statist's lifetime.
