Two threats to liberty
LewRockwell.Com
by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.
There are two clear and present dangers to liberty in America. One is known as the left, and the other is known as the right. They are dangerous because they seek to use government to mold society into a form they seek, rather than the form that liberty achieves if society is left on its own.
