Well, if that which governs least governs best, then, by extension, that which governs not at all governs best of all. Can anyone tell me one thing that government (any government) does, that private individuals operating in a free market cannot improve upon? Just one single solitary thing is all I ask.
If you don't believe humans need government , you are one very dumb person. If you believe less government is better, so no government would be perfect, you are having a thinking problem. If one dose of a laxative gets you regular, an overdose can get you dissolved.

If Obama has been lying for the past eight years, it is amazing that you are unable to give me even one example of a lie he has told only a bunch of things about the black guy that annoy you. Do you know what self reflection means? Do use the word, moron, when you live in a glass house.

Dave, I think you are really blinded by your doctrines and do not see reality. For instance, you state: "a smart boss wants his workers to get more money, because a happy workforce will do a better job, thus making him more money." Tell that to Walmart, many whose employees make so litle they have to get food stamps, which you and I and the rest of the USA population has to pay for. You bet I am for unions under certain circunstances, though I know a bit about union abuse, having been the object of it once or twice. Many unions are corrupt.

Your myopia is only bested by your naïve stupidity. Until you realize that a smart boss wants his workers to get more money, because a happy workforce will do a better job, thus making him more money. You must belong to, and love unions. They are the scourge of the working class.

Yes, I know poor people who started their own businesses and eventually hired employees. The "pursuit of happiness" you speak of on the part of the rich amounts figuratively to screwing other people.
