  • @chapaev36 They also control which science to fund. Something to think about.

  • @AndroidPolitician Agreed that the government plays a key role in funding scientific research. You raise a good point and this is one of several that really put a dent in some of the more extreme libertarian talking points. The truth is somewhere in the middle, as usual.

  • hong kong is the economic business model

    i thought he was gonna say "give me a break"

  • God bless Milton Friedman

  • Unfortunately, you got people like "TheYoungTurks" spouting rhetoric like: "The people were starving and dying on the streets before social security, food stamps etc.." I'm sure they were making a reference to the great depression without realizing that was the fault of the "government controlled" Federal Reserve in the first place.

  • People should also realize before BOTH the government and the health insurance companies started meddling with health care, it was dirt cheap (pre 60's). You paid for your health care based upon how much you made, and individual doctors and surgeons were extremely fair. If you were extremely poor you did not have to pay at all. Thats the way it should work.

  • Because the government loosened regulations we are now getting cleaner cars that get better fuel mileage then when the government influenced car manufactures, they would just then build bigger cars and classify them as light trucks.

  • @Panpiper Right on, my friend. May you prosper!

  • LOL. HAHAHAHA!!! "There nothing that does so much harm than good intentions." I agree with that.
