The law of unintended consequences, like the laws of physics, will catch up with you every time

I am not against health care reform or whatever they’re calling it nowadays. We could use some tort reform and insurance deregulation.

I am against clueless crusaders trying to save the world by building monstrosities with my money. Having hope in our politicians is like having hope that those one-thousand monkeys pounding away on a thousand typewriters will eventually produce the great American novel.

Consider what our government has accomplished, or should I say destroyed, so far.

Starve People, Feed Cars!

What a great idea ethanol is! Food riots, skyrocketing prices in poverty-stricken nations that can least afford it. Grain shortages have also resulted in higher prices for grain-fed livestock. All brought to you by the US Government.

Killing people in the War on Terror, bad. Starving them to death so smug liberals can feel good about themselves when they tank up at that special pump, priceless!

Coal-Powered Environmentalism

So you think your electric car is environmentally friendly? Wrong! It runs on coal. More so if you live back east, less so out west. This will continue to be the case until you can plug that little self-righteous box into a windmill or solar panel.

The Post Office is running an $8 Billion debt this year.  Do you think this health care reform will improve anything?  Do you really believe Obama when he says his health care plan will save money? Do you really think he and his confreres in congress believe it? Ask the food rioters in Oaxaca if they believe it.
