From a new group blog at the PJ Tatler: “The urge to save humanity is almost always a false-front for the urge to rule it.”

On balance I'd tend to agree, but there are new thought leaders like William Easterly and others who are pushing for change from the ground up and recognizing the power of commerce over subsidies and entitlements in the developing world and for those who seek a better life.
