Quote from John W. Whitehead,


In recent years we have witnessed numerous marches on Washington in which one group or another has demanded new
“rights.” Frequently, such rights have not meant freedom from state control, but rather entitlement to state action, protection, or subsidy. In the
process of yielding to the “will of the people” and creating new rights, the state invariably enlarges itself and its bureaucracy. Each new right seems
to demand a new agency to guarantee it, administer it, or deliver it.
