Nothing New in Totalitarianism

Bill Whittle on Progressives:

Progressivism is the most ancient philosophy in the world actually. When you get right down to it, progressivism has been the default state of mankind since language was invented. There’s nothing new about progressivism. This idea of empowering a few of the smart people to tell everybody else what to do is as old as history. There’s nothing new about progressivism.

The only new idea in history is the idea of limited government and individual responsibility...

I love Bill Whittle. (You know what I mean... in the manly, let's-have-a-beer-and-chase-skirts sort of way, not the way Progressives mean it.) The man has a way of cutting away all the crap and presenting complex arguments in brilliantly insightful ways. Video and transcript at the link.
