It was not the fascists but the socialists

Kudo’s to Bruce for the Hayek reference.  For those who are really interested, and you should be… Hayek uses liberalism in the traditional sense.  See Wikipedia for guidance.  It’s not what you think.  Well, maybe not you, Jim.

All the best.  Really examine the message…behind the message.

Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.
