01UndatedI think, therefore I am an individual... not a drone in a collective. I think, therefore I am... LibertarianA.E. Samaan / quote ↗
02UndatedSome that read this book will find its Libertarian and Constitutionalist slant a bit obtuse and maybe even off-putting. This author makes no apologies for viewing the history of the eugenics movement from this political perspective. It is the ethical and legal underpinnings of the American Revolution that remain as a guiding light while the eugenics movement continues to reemerge long after its alleged demise. Limited, or rather minimal government, goes a long way to curtail the disconnect that emerges when government grows so large that it no longer feels compelled to heed to the dictates of the governed.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
03UndatedThe sadist desires to command and control. The masochist desires to be freed from the burdens of liberty. That is Socialism.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗

06UndatedVery few tyrants argued for the slavery of the masses. Instead, they argued for their right to protect the people from themselves.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
07UndatedEugenics has always been the escape valve of single payer socialized medicine. Havelock Ellis was writing about them as one and the same prior to the fin-de-siecle. Culling out of control population growth and the economic drain of the incurably sick has always been a part of socialized medicine.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
08UndatedCentrally planned economies are upended by out of control population. Their escape valve is eugenics.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
09UndatedThe central planners of Democratic Socialism tighten their noose when people resist their plans and assert their rights. All Socialism is intended to devolve into Communism, and as a result, Totalitarianism.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
10UndatedI was once a statist, and then I researched The Holocaust. I am now a Libertarian.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
11UndatedThere is a very dangerous myth that #Hitler was solely fueled by racism. His desire to engineer society was pervasive. Racism alone cannot explain what happened in The Holocaust without also addressing Hitler's statist policies.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
13UndatedYou can either have individual liberty, or dependence on the government. One is designed to undo the other.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
14UndatedYou can get to oppression through regulation, especially in an "Idea Economy" which necessitates liberty of the mind to explore.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
15UndatedOur Supreme Court is not a court of law. It is a court of conjecture and political fad.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗

19UndatedBig government = oligarchy. Simple equation. Big government = loss of representation.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
20UndatedA "centrally planned economy" by definition discourages and despises participation by the masses. It's a bureaucratic oligarchy.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
21UndatedThere is no law, there is only conjecture. The Progressive ethos changes the law's meaning according to fad and fashion.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
22UndatedHistory could not be any clearer: Rights given by fad and fashion are just as easily taken away. The Constitution matters.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
23UndatedBig Government' is a lot less like a 'Big Brother', and a lot more like a mother-in-law.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
24UndatedThe idea economy is a conversation. Try to channel or control that conversation and you will stop the chatter.A.E. Samaan / quote ↗
