[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 867244, member: 2189"] There is no answer for that because you have to view it from an individual POV. You are viewing it from a collective or nationstate POV. And don't get defensive from that last point because we all do it. We've been conditioned to do it and it takes a long time and effort to break that habit. My life works for me. I think it is the best so it's obvious on it's face the best for everyone else. We need laws to mandate it. Sounds good but not true. It's true for you but not always true for others just as the lifestyle of others may not work for you. Therefore I don't submit to your point as empirical because there is no way for me to know what others need, want or choices they might make. It's that praxeology thingy if you will. America was founded for all it's warts on the idea that the people would be free to in effect, find their own path. The "ism" they choose towards those ends were left up to them. Now the gov't has preferred "isms" and what happens when you don't let the market seek it's own balance and you mis-allocate resources to a favored side of the market seeking a self interest preferred outcome? Are the effects of mis-allocation being blamed on the wrong people? Who controls the decision makers? Who controls the marketplace and it resource allocation? Who sets law and policy? Why are the people furthest from this process the first ones to be blamed? To quote Carson from the earlier linked piece: And he also was dead on the money when he concluded: c ya! [/QUOTE]
