OUR SNEERING LIBERAL CULTURE in a nutshell. Money quote: "One of the better arguments, of dozens, for smaller government is that the larger the state becomes, the more it attracts social engineers under its protective umbrella. The latter do not wish to work in the private sector, but gravitate to a public/not for profit entity where theorizing and editorializing apart from the market are not only encouraged but inevitably lead to hostility to the market."
