Law & Liberty by Rousas John Rushdoony
A professor, who had left teaching soon after World War II, lectured to a group of students at a major Western university a few years ago on the decline of liberty. To his shock, one of the first questions asked by a student was simply this: 'What's so wonderful about liberty? What makes you think it is necessary for man?' For the students, security was a necessary social objective; liberty was not.
