This struck me this morning, the Holocaust would not have been possible, at least not on such a scale, were it not for the machinations of a central government that instituted it and controlled it.

The articles above explain much that I didn’t know about why many Jewish people, whom I admire as a group, are so liberal. Is it kind of like “Catholic Guilt”? The feeling that “well I grew up with a religious background, but now I’m not particularly religious but I feel we must do good for them and that is my penance”. “Doing Good for them” being defined as…”taking someone else’s money and giving it to others because I’m too selfish to give my own”.
