...the Liberal Party (of the left) became a non-stop geyser of “social” legislation: fixing prices, regulating working hours, mandating all kinds of inspections, financing public works, restricting “vices,” corralling children into public schools, putting trades under license requirements (including a “Pedlars Act, inflicting penalties for hawking without a certificate”), establishing a state monopoly in telegraphy, and even enacting a “Sea-birds Preservation Act” that ended up harming the fishing industry by causing a “greater mortality of fish.” - English philosopher Hebert Spencer (1880's) lamenting on how the party of central government planners on the left had co-opted the moniker of "liberal"; thus, describing themselves as liberal but enacting illiberal legislation restricting individual freedoms.
