Once I learned [libertarianism] it was just clear to me, but most people will never either spend the time to learn it or they can’t learn it. —John Stossel
Every time we call for the government to fix some problem, we accelerate the growth of government. If we do not change the way we think, we will end up socialists by default, even if no one calls us that. —John Stossel
