Monty Pelerin’s World: Our Patrick Henry Moment Is Here

Our Patrick Henry Moment Is Here.   Monty Pelerin eloquently sums up the current state of affairs and offers this stark observation about President Obama:

This country’s first socialist president strode into office confident that he would remake this country. Fortunately for the country, the timing of his election was twenty, if not fifty, years too late. Socialism has failed in its pure form wherever it has been tried. Now it has failed in its modified form. While much of the world realizes this, President Obama is either ignorant or has more sinister plans for the country.

This is a powerful piece with rather chilling conclusions

We will either get liberty or totalitarianism. There is no middle ground. For me, the choice is clear and was stated by Patrick Henry more than two centuries ago: “Give me liberty or give me death.”
