@hylander
how were ancient greece and rome welfare states?
also, if you look at the social democracies in europe, civil libertie tend to be pretty similar to the usa.
i do get your point though. i have to admit, i did laugh when i read that bit in the army manual that went something like "the public officials best suited for the job." that's a pretty tall order these days.
