Saturday, December 10, 2005 Libertarians themselves should take heart. Our hope lies, as strange as it may seem, not with any remnants from an illusory “golden age” of individualism, which never existed, but with tomorrow. Our day has not come and gone. It has never existed at all. It is our task to see that it will exist in the future. The choice and the battle are ours. -- Roy A. Childs, Jr., “Big Business and the Rise of American Statism” [1971]
