“Government is not reason; it is not eloquent: it is force. Like fire, it is a troublesome servant and a fearful master.” – George Washington
“In all that people can individually do for themselves, government ought not to interfere.” – Abraham Lincoln
Random observation/thought: here’s a great example of free enterprise vs government run: I just heard that schools will be closing tomorrow, even though they’ve had all day today without snowfall to get plowing done. The Eagles game played on this afternoon, and the airport (hit with 2 feet of snow) had planes running today.
Government doesn’t need to make a profit, there is no direct goal for it to strive. On the other hand, no money is made with a closed football field, or planes just on the ground; capitalism won that round.
Keep that in mind, as Democrats continue to try and get government run health-care through the system. If there is no competition, no motivation to stand out, to achieve success. Do you think it’s going to be cheaper for you? Do you think it’s going to be more efficient? Will we see the same level of scientific innovation? Will it be a better experience overall? The answer, is no…
