Summary

The ideas and policies that are percolating down from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and Capitol Hill - increased government intervention, calls to "spread the wealth around," onerous regulations, and bailouts for all - are not new. We've been down this road before. We know where it leads. It is that forlorn byway that Fried-rich von Hayek called the Road to Serfdom.
