“Progressives understand that their program for a government-centered society becomes more plausible the more people believe that work — individual striving — is unavailing. Government grows as fatalism grows, and fatalism grows as progressivism inculcates in people the demoralizing — make that de-moralizing — belief that they are victims of circumstances.” George Will, (1941-) American newspaper columnist, journalist, and author, Purdue Has the President America Needs, Jun. 15, 2016.
