"In a thousand fields the welfarists, statists, socialists, and interventionists are daily driving for more restrictions on individual liberty."

When should we nudge and when should we shove, I think, it's a political judgment. Obviously in some situations we need shoves, we need laws. Fraud is against the law, murder is against the law, drunk-driving is against the law. We don't need just nudges.
