Is history about to repeat itself? The premise of the Road to Serfdom is that dictators always promise the people who are suffering that they have the solutions to the country’s problems. These solutions are never outlined and the consequences have been dictatorships in China, Germany, Italy and Russia.
The solutions that are implemented after the dictatorship is in place are never what the people had envisioned. Himmler’s final solution in Nazi Germany resulted in the extermination of six million Jews and one million gypsies. As Mr. Matthews points out indirectly in this video, “hope and change” was just “smoke and mirrors”. It appears that Mr. Matthews has finally looked into the mirror and does not like what he sees. What about the rest of America.
