Waff, I suspect that those "brutalized Steel workers" got paid for their efforts along with the workers who built all the libraries that Carnigie financed. As to "brutalized" you can't top those slave labor camps that were in good old socialist Soviet Russia. And J Carlton is right on both of his comments.

Freedom of speech means that people can say even obnoxious and stupid things but with PC running amok it's now a cardinal sin to do so.

Those true believer, liberal do-gooders cause most of the countries' troubles. If they would just leave us alone, things would work out, but like cockroaches, they have to get into everything.

What do tariffs do if not to raise prices on imported goods that we buy. Naturally, labor unions are always trying to get congress to put tariffs on foreign goods and we pay the price.

Substitute "labor unions" for "protectionist" in the above quote and you wouldn't be far wrong.

Reston, you say that the rest of the population is more connected to reality than Texas. I think that your problem is that you live to close to to Washington and some of their insanity has infected you.

RBESRQ, where you separated at birth from Reston? Sure sounds like it.

jim k, Austin,Tx

J Carlton, you are exactly right.

This quote sort of reminds me of the U.N. Giving up our sovereinty to the U.N. would about as bad as it could possibly get with that band of thugs running things. We should get out and send the U.N. to North Korea or Cuba where they could be with their own kind.

And when sheep lie down with wolves, the sheep don't get much rest. Just read Restons comments and you will know that we have become a nation of sheep.

Reston, assuming you can read, you may get some insight into the horrors of the income tax from a book titled," The Income Tax, Root of all Evil." Amazon will be happy to send you one.This book was written when the IRS was known as The Internal Revenue Bureau.

The application is a little different but the principle is the same.

Jefferson wouldn't believe what the hacks in Washington are up to now.

For a great example just look inside the Beltway.

When government redistributes the wealth, everyone is the poorer for it.

No need to comment, the quote says it very well.

Friedman is right on and Dr,Tom and Reston are way out in left field.

I'm with J and Mike on this. Whether as an individual or a country, debt equals slavery.

We've had, to a great extent, a regulated economy since FDR, and look at the mess our country is in with debt so high that we can't even pay the interest.

This quote could be describing a bureaucrat who says "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you".

It's interesting ,Reston, that when the democrats win elections the electorate is well informed and brilliant. If they lose , the electorate is suddenly stupid. The truth is that the mess we are in was a bipartisan effort. The repubs and the dems are two sides of the same coin. As to the voters, 90 percent have no idea what's going on.

Bailouts, foreign aid, welfare, drug wars, etc., no wonder that our country is so far in debt that we can't even pay the interest on the national debt. And the hacks running things in Washington want to spend more and more. To say they spend like drunken sailors is an insult to drunken sailors.

Paper money may not be the root of all evil, but it's right near the top.

jim k, Austin,tx

I go along with J Carlton on this.

We need to get out of the UN and send the whole bunch elsewhere, maybe N. Korea where they would be right at home
