Harsanyi: Enlightened tyrants - The Denver Post

"Progressivism is the belief that we have too much freedom with which to make too many stupid choices." Of course, the thinking goes that enlightened Democrats know what is better for you than you do. The concept of the 'benevolent dictator' is juvenile and seeks to force a minority position or belief upon a free thinking people. Hopefully the resounding defeat of the statist Democrats in yesterday's election will stop the hard left Marxist shift that has been experienced in the US in recent years.
