What's in a Libertarian salad?.......

Lettuce alone!


"There is one and only one social responsibility of business–to use it resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits so long as it stays within the rules of the game, which is to say, engages in open and free competition without deception or fraud."

Here is the problem with Friedman.

That business should be allowed to engage in whatever it wants, without any government control or regulation. The problem, it doesn’t work. Business has shown time and time again that it will never self regulate enough to “stay within the rules of the game, or be free of deception and fraud.

We have followed Friedman economics in this country for almost 30 years now. Through it we have seen the middle class shrink, our borders subverted and government of the people is almost a thing of the past.

Capitalism is not the problem. Socialism is not the problem. The problem is human nature. Without laws society degrades into chaos. Business is the same.
Business will cut, drill, kill, dump, use-up, destroy anything and defraud anyone because their god has commanded them to do so. Their god is the almighty dollar and their standard of righteousness is “more green, more godly”.
