The Anti-American welfare state

The libertarian welfare state (do as you please, then get the government to pay for the resulting mess) is now being transmogrified into the anti-American libertarian welfare state (do as you please to attack the U.S. government, then get the U.S. government to pay for the resulting mess). The municipal authorities of San Francisco, having allowed destructive anti-war “demonstrations” to run free in that city, are now asking Uncle Sam to fork over millions to pay for the policing and other costs.
