Meet Bill Whittle

Meet Bill Whittle from The Firewall.  He looks a bit like Jim Carey, talks like an understudy of Hayek.  Excellent!

Whittle presents the fundamentals of freedom-based conservatism, or what we more broadly call classical liberalism, in plain language and with historical perspective.   His presentations are well worth taking in and passing along.

"There's only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government." 


Watch for his videos on Youtube.

Video: What Elitism Does to Freedom

This video by Bill Whittle is worthy of much time and consideration.  I first saw it posted at Hot Air and very much wanted to share here in In Real Time.

No matter what the time, country, or culture, there will always be a group of people who think they know best how to run you life than you do.  Worse still, they are bent on leveraging their elitism upon you through whatever system of government, all at the cost of individual freedom.

Whittle's observations dovetail wonderfully with Hayek's Road to Serfdom and Sowell's
The Vision of The Annointed.
