Beautifully written article by Sandy Ikeda at FEE: I believe it was Gabriel Kolko in The Triumph of Conservatism who argued that opposition to “centralization, conformity, bureaucracy” and the oppression of “the little guy” motivated left-progressives a hundred years ago, regardless of whether its source was the private sector or government. The job of the libertarian intellectual then, and a job for classical liberals of each and every generation, is to explain how those things are much, much worse when done by the State, using its monopoly over violent aggression, than when done by even the largest private companies in the world.
