I object! And working as fast as I can to change this very thing.
Don,
I am very interested in your history. I think I remember your saying that
you were 57. But I know little else. Maybe some history would shed some
light on why you think the way that you do. Example: I just turned 39,
attended 1 year of college and didn't have enough money to continue (besides
I knew that business was where I wanted to be and college was a poor
substitute for the real thing). I've been either a manager, or owner of
businesses all of my adult life. I know first hand the real cost of
government regulations and laws and the real effect on safety and public
health and cost that is passed on to customers in several industries. At
about the age of 27 I realized just how counter productive government is and
have been recording and fighting the infringements of my individual rights
ever since.
From your statements I imagine you to be a product of the state. This comes from many years either in the employ of the government or heavily influenced by many years of publicly subsidized education,.... or both. I do not intend to be critical should this assumption be correct. I just find it easier to be more sympathetic toward you due to the environment that caused your views to be so counter to mine. Either way your in my prayers.
Ernie
