Or perhaps it simply requires a Big State to protect rampant individualism?) E.D. – In your follow up:

Kain Sat, 28 Feb 2009 17:28:37 +0000 http://www.ordinary-gentlemen.com/?p=1267#comment-2466 I wonder. Personally, I'm torn, and will be following up on this post with my own. I'm very drawn to the paleo-vision of America. I'm very much opposed to the rampant individualism that seems to have led, almost directly, the advent of the Big State as we know it.

I'll save it for my post... I wonder. Personally, I’m torn, and will be following up on this post with my own. I’m very drawn to the paleo-vision of America.
