Are you needed?
March 17th, 2010
US radio host Dennis Prager and what happens to the citizen when the state grows:
…the bigger the government, the smaller the citizen. One can add: The bigger the government, the less significant the citizen — especially men….In order to feel significant, men not only need to have others depend on them, they also need to depend on themselves, on their own work and initiative. But that, too, is destroyed as the state gets bigger….As being needed and significant shifts from the individual to the state, the state increasingly determines who is needed and who has significance.
The ABC for instance, unions, obscure artists, writers and academics, etc… as if any of us are meant to care.
