因为基本的人性没有变化,斗争的双方没有变化
一方是一群弱智傻逼馋懒败家在教主的领导下飞向人间天堂
一方是自由独立理智有道德负责任的男人们忍辱负重维持社会不崩溃
Friedrich August von Hayek
---------------------------------------
The moral consequences of totalitarian propaganda...are destructive of all
morals because they undermind one of the foundations of all morals: the
sense of and respect for truth.
Nobody with open eyes can any longer doubt that the danger to personal
freedom comes chiefly from the left.
The idea of social justice is that the state should treat different people
unequally in order to make them equal.
More harm and misery have been caused by men determined to use coercion to
stamp out a moral evil than by men intent on doing evil.
Socialistic economic planning, regulation, and intervention pave the way to
totalitarianism by building a power structure that will inevitably be seized
by the most power-hungry and unscrupulous.
Those who are willing to surrender their freedom for security have always
demanded that if they give up their full freedom it should also be taken
from those not prepared to do so.
The power which a multiple millionaire, who may be my neighbor and perhaps
my employer, has over me is very much less than that which the smallest "
functionaire" possesses who wields the coercive power of the state, and on
whose desecration it depends whether and how I am allowed to live or to work.
Few are ready to recognize that the rise of fascism and Nazism was not a
reaction against the socialist trends of the preceding period but a
necessary outcome of those tendencies.
And it's a necessity [for journalists] to pretend to be competent on every
subject, some of which they really do not understand. They are under that
necessity, I regret; I'm sorry for them. But to pretend to understand all
the things you write about, and habitually to write about things you do not
understand, is a very corrupting thing.
A claim for equality of material position can be met only by a government
with totalitarian powers.
The younger generation of today has grown up in a world in which in school
and press the spirit of commercial enterprise has been represented as
disreputable and the making of profit as immoral, where to employ a hundred
people is represented as exploitation but to command the same number as
honorable. |
