Our slide towards serfdom really kicked into high gear with Wilson and Teddy. There is no question in my mind that individuals are better stewards of their own, private property that governments are. I remember reading a comedy (at least to me) called "The Jungle" by Upton SInclair and found it hard to believe that all those smart people in government would pass legislation based upon the socialist fantasies and lies found in his fictional novel. I think I'll give some though to the role of government in a free society for my next post. As far as I'm concerned, the government shouldn't even be involved in parks at all! But, that's just me!:)
