With each passing day the failure of the welfare state to accomplish its stated objectives becomes more and more obvious. Needless to say failure hasn’t dimmed progressive enthusiasm for the politics of command and control.
The progressive project, still lauded by much of the academe, got its start in America with Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson.
