About Me:
"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery". ===Winston Churchill
"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."
- Margaret Thatcher
"The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people,
it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government
-- lest it come to dominate our lives and interests."
- Patrick Henry
Quote (George McGovern): "As an innkeeper, I wanted excellent safeguards against a fire. But I was startled to be told that our two-story structure, which had large sliding doors opening from every guest room to all-concrete decks, required us to meet fire regulations more appropriate to the Waldorf-Astoria."
Quote (George McGovern): "If I were back in the Senate or in the White House, I would ask a lot more questions before I voted for any more burdens on the thousands of struggling businesses across the nation."
In school, students are taught that if the federal government didn't regulate business we'd all be enslaved by giant monopolies. In fact, they are taught, that is exactly what happened throughout history under the unfettered free market system. This is an utterly inaccurate version of history. The government teaches this in the schools so that citizens will not complain about the ever-increasing role of the government in our economy. The prosperity of the United States was not brought about because of government regulation. Prosperity developed in spite of government regulation.
I proudly do not belong to any political party. Who can identify 100% with any party? The odds are highly against such a thing.
I am the vote that politicians are afraid of.
There are many like me!

How Welfare Destroys Charity
Milton Friedman: We as human beings don't have a responsibility, but I hope we have a compassion and an interest in the bottom twenty percent. And I only want to say to you that the capitalist system, the private enterprise system in the nineteenth century did a far better job of expressing that sense of compassion than the governmental welfare programs are today. The nineteenth century, the period which people denigrate as a high tide of capitalism had the-- was the period of the greatest out pouring of eleemosynary and charitable activity that the world has ever known. And one of the things I hold against the welfare system, most seriously, is that it has destroyed private charitable arrangements which are far more effective, far more compassionate, far more person-to-person in helping people who are really, for no fault of their own, in disadvantaged situations.

The OWS losers need to create a job instead of leeching off of the American taxpayer.
The air base news paper was the Tip of the Sword, but we called it the tip of the turd.
