What a good article. Have only digested about 25% of it so far. Good to see chronological facts for a change. Puts a different perspective on things.<br />Cheers<br />Phillip

Not a lot of takers, I guess. Excellent historical record and analysis. Might help to mention that the Cato Institute is fairly conservative and gets much of its support from tobacco companies. Scares me how much of this stuff I remember.

Cato website:

<br />"Classical liberal" is a bit closer to the mark, but the word "classical" connotes a backward-looking philosophy

good try there, bm283... as if it really reads like an unbiased opinion - yeah, right <br /><br />if that's fairly conservative, its a new use of the meaning
