> All I'm doing is claiming that the American approach leads, in the end, to greater and more permanent personal liberty

Your life being controlled by huge corporations because the government doesn't stop them from controlling everything doesn't give a lot of people personal liberty.



Then again, those huge corporations in question exist because the state gives them the ability to incorporate in the first place, and then exerts its monopoly on the use of force to protect their capital as it gets accumulated and concentrated.
