The Era of Liberals and Conservatives is Over
By Oliver DeMille
When everything depends on which side is right, what happens when both sides are wrong?
Liberalism believes in the state: government is the savior of mankind to guard against greedy businessmen. Conservatism today believes in the market: business prosperity is the solution to mankind’s struggles, and the state must be controlled by business.
Both are wrong; and yet the battle continues. To judge from media and academia, the thinkers are stuck in this paradigm; to judge from elections—so, indeed, are the voters.
