>> I even left out his name, hoping to hear about the evils of socialism.

The name was the least of what you left out. To suggest that Hayek would have, in any way, endorsed what is going on in this country today is ridiculous.

If anything, his cautionary tone was prescient. He could see what was coming long before anyone could have foreseen it. Even at a time when FDR himself actually believed these programs would work (but also believing that if we ended up enslaved by them, they would have been a failure).
