People were right to believe that government was undermining personal responsibility. People were right to have what Tyler Cowen, in a brilliant essay in Cato Unbound, calls the “liberty vs. power” paradigm burned into their minds — the idea that big government means less personal liberty.

And they are still right to think that.

Not in a total universal absolute sense, with the idea that any government action hurts liberty. But generally government is expanding and reducing liberty, even if not always in the same way as before.
