Trade Freedom Drills Against Planning in Rotary Talk
Tom May of Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric spoke to Gallipolis Rotarians arguing a planned economy mirrors socialism or communism. He warned that once planning begins a state grows power, risking loss of freedom, and urged opposition to church state union, subsidies, and federal solutions to local problems. He cited Britain’s many rules and the rise of a Godless nation, urging defense of private enterprise and freedom. The lunch meeting included introductions of junior Rotarians and a push to support a proposed city parking lot and rest rooms.
