"...[W]hen you stop to think about it, peace merely for the sake of peace isn't all that inviting. The easiest way to get and ensure peace is by surrendering your principles and your freedom. Most Americans (I hope) don't want that kind of peace. The United States could have peace if it contacted Osama bin Laden and asked him his price, but I suspect whatever it is it's more than we'd
be willing to pay. Ditto Saddam Hussein. The sad -- but true -- fact is that the only peace worth having is a peace that's worth fighting for. Because peace without freedom is not worth having. And freedom cannot be sustained without being willing to fight for it."

The problem is, you can't have New Deal type public works programs without New Deal type economic controls. Even a "third way" political philosopher such as Juergen Habermas admitted as much.
