Elites who would reduce our freedom to protect us from our stupidity

Here is a link to a paper  "Fool Me Once: The Case for Government Regulation of “Fake News” by Abby K. Wood, Ann M. Ravel, Irina Dykhne.

Wood is Associate Professor of Law, Political Science, and Public Policy at University of Southern California (awood@law.usc.edu); Ravel is Lecturer in Law at Berkeley Law, and former Chair of the Federal Election Commission and California Fair Political Practices Commission; Dykhne is a J.D. candidate at the USC Gould School of Law.

The paper is a wonderful example of elitists wanting to run our lives to protect us from ourselves.  Of  course, that involves more regulation and bureaucracy.
