I believe in personal freedom. I believe Liberty is the best possible structure for society. Liberty presumes circumscribed power of government. The power of government should be limited. In a democracy, that puts a limit on the will of the majority. Society must have a clear understanding of individual rights, express or implied. The recognition of individual rights results of liberty.

Culture is the sum of traditional ways people live life. Ideas about the structure and meaning of life are important to people. People draw strength from those ideas. Social change is always against the will of the people.

Social change is hazardous. Necessarily, such change requires substituting an untried system for what is working now. It takes political power to force change in social tradition, and this degree of social change is a source of political power. People will give up and will eventually accept they ought to be forced to conform to social change. Dislocating the present allows whoever is poised for change to take advantage of it.

What use is unlimited government right? The Mutant American Left claims that is the purpose of the American Bill of Rights. According to them, the Bill of Rights is a statement of government power, not a limit to that power. According to these "Liberals," government has the power to run roughshod over anyone in the way of "progress." (Thus the other name of the Mutant American Liberal: The "Progressive.")

But unlimited government power is only the power to oppress, not progress. This is why the Neo-Left brook no discussion and do not tolerate opposition. These Leftists are at war with humanity; the New Left is intolerant of tradition. Seen in this light, even Communism or Nazism are merely competing forms of oppression. They are rivals in the attempt to extinguish human freedom. In the late twentieth century we can add Mutant American Liberalism.
