Corollary: No matter how violently imperialistic the government is, any problems between the US and foreigners will be blamed on insufficient bloodlust/patriotism/leadership/humanitarianism.

I was recently thinking to myself how people tend to look at isolated cases of cronyism (such as Enron) and blame the entire free market for such downfalls.

Glad to see an article on the Freeman addressing this.
