Jonah G.: Bok is a fascist!

I don't usually comment on stupid things that Jonah Goldberg writes or says, because, you know, I worry about getting carpal tunnel syndrome. But I just really enjoyed this one he posted on NRO's The Corner last night, regarding some comments he caught from Derek Bok, talking about Bok's recent book (which I recently read, and recommend). If I'm understanding Goldberg's post correctly, he is declaring that Bok's suggestion that government try to alleviate misery and increase happiness -- by devoting more resources to clinical depression, chronic pain, and sleep disorders -- is "totalitarianism," "liberal fascism," and "benign tyranny."
