The people who tried government regulation have lives which are miserable.

Liberalism had come to mean spending more on everything-speech police, failed poverty programs that reward dependence, a bigger nanny state telling us we cannot eat fatty foods, workplace roles that stifle opportunity, and absurd environmental regulations.

I had to watch government fail for 25 years doing consumer reporting before I really saw it because intuitively, the reaction is problem, bring government and government will make it better.

[T]he only way to shrink the trade deficit is for the government to prohibit us from buying whatever we want.

What I've learned in 40 years of consumer reporting is that the market is imperfect, and some people get ripped off.

Madoff's scam was small compared to Ponzi schemes the government itself runs: Social Security and Medicare.

As a free person, I ought to be allowed if I'm dying to take something.
