"We haven't had free-market capitalism-we've had Davos capitalism, a
managerial capitalism run by self proclaimed enlightened elite politicians,
business leaders, technology gurus, buearcrats, academics, and celebrities--all
gathered at a posh resort in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum
where each year they try to make capitalism smarter or more humane--or in Bill
Gate's words last year at Davos--more "creative". ~Mr. Michael Miller, Acton Institute
I named my blog after Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus -- A Roman consul who served only long enough to save his Republic before returning to his farm. Cincinnatus was the inspiration for the Order of Cincinnatus, to which George Washington and Lafayette and many other American Patriots were members. Omnia relinquit servare rempublicam - He relinquished everything to serve the Republic.
