. . . The liberals' vision of big government is coercive to its
core. Eric Hobsbawm showed that the model for the organization of their
desired society used by many social democrats in the interwar period was
the German War Plan of 1914. FDR's New Deal was basically cribbed from
Mussolini's New Order." (Cockburn & St. Clair)
