All highlighted examples show how Herbert Hoover (1874-1964) believed that once the federal government started to take directly participate in the economic system the inevitable outcome would be the loss of freedom.
In the first and second examples he is saying that once the government starts to take part, it goes all the way into the private lives of individuals which would be an attack against the basis of freedom.
Hoover thought like this because for him freedom only exists in the private life when it's kept away and separate from the government.

The evidence would be the way the Articles of Confederation created a week central government that basically, only had the power to control the post office and deal with Native American Issues. It was the states the ones that were sovereign and could collect money through taxation. So if the Central government needed money, it had to ask the states for it.
That original statement was written by Edmund S. Morgan, in "The Birth of the Republic."
