The Economics and Political Science Room
From Robert Welch's Blue Book of John Birch Society, must reading for understanding roots of Communism:
Most of the people of Europe and America, for the past hundred years, for instance, have gradually been led to believe fervently that everything in the way of “security” legislation, from the first Workmen’s Compensation Acts under Bismarck to the latest Medicare monstrosity under Lyndon Johnson, was a proof of their own nobility of outlook. And this is not the place to go into any discussion as to which pieces of the mosaic may really have been justified and worthwhile.
For unrecognized by the visionary do-gooders and even by the opportunistic politicians, who alike were inveigled into pushing along this new humanitarianism, was the constant thread of its hidden purpose. That actual purpose was, on the part of the instigators who contrived it, always and by all means, to reduce the responsibilities and rights of individual citizens, while steadily increasing the quantity, the reach, and the potential tyranny of governments. This was the real long-range goal of the INSIDERS who designed and controlled the movement, but who had realized from the beginning that Communism must largely be advanced by non-Communists who know not what they are doing.
