Fraudulent Credentials

August 10, 2006 at 7:20am By: Mr. Wilson Posted in The Lincolnite Blog

In the print edition of the Journal Star this morning there is an article about New Yorker Howard Rich, who is providing much of the money behind two Nebraska petition drives: a state spending lid, and a requirement that hospitals feed dying patients. Mr. Rich is described in the article as libertarian, and his group is called Americans for Limited Government.

It is neither libertarian, nor a practice of limited government, to require in the state constitution that hospitals do certain things to certain people in certain conditions. It is an invasive regulation, and a socially conservative preference incompatible with libertarian understandings of the role of government.

I’m just sayin’.
