The big question is whether Americans are correct in their suspicions of their government. Galston provides absolutely no reason for thinking they are not.

Why not expand to Yummytarianism? That is, eating only what the yummytarian thinks will be yummy, and stopping the eating of anything that turns out not to be yummy. I practice it nearly all the time.

Virtual worlds started to go downhill once professional researchers started to outnumber actual users. The user base will dry up completely once the remaining users realize that it would be easier to just meet in the Sociology Department conference room and study each other in person.

I follow the healthiest of all diets: Supervegetarianism. I only eat vegetarian animals, thus getting all of the benefits of vegetarianism plus the wholesome goodness of meat. You could also call it vegetarianism once-removed.
