Democracy is not freedom
By Bruce Walker

As we approach another election cycle, during which we will be peppered with calls by politicians to take government action because that is what the "people" want, it is important to recall that the "will of the people" has no moral value at all.

Anyone who closely watched the recent bipartisan congressional hearings on the Tiananmen Square massacre ought to have noticed this salient problem with the Orwellian mutilation of language appearing over and over again in the remarks of American academicians brought in as witnesses.  "Democracy" was always cited as the virtue desired, and "freedom" was never mentioned at all.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for lunch.
