Line Segment

And before this gets old, will it still feel the same?
There's no way this could die
--Pat Benatar

Rothbard makes the case for statism emanating from all portions of the 'Left-Right' political spectrum. The ideals may differ between factions, but the end objective is similar: use of authoritarian rule to limit freedom in the name of some political agenda.

Rothbard wrote this piece in 1979. Like many of his missives, this could have been written yesterday.

As he notes:

"The lines are getting drawn with increasing clarity. Statism versus liberty."
