Quote of the day

Yeah, yeah - Ayn Rand was a hypocrite because she got Medicare.  Or something.  Orphan Wilde brings the rebuttal:
...you make it illegal for a private company to sell me water, you make it illegal for a private company to sell me electricity without your silly damn regulations, you seize people's property in order to build roads, you force me to pay into an involuntary retirement scheme, you make it illegal for anybody to provide medical care without your approval, you refuse to let me buy food and drugs on my own terms free from your meddling...

...and then you accuse me of being a hypocrite who is dependent on the government because nothing I do in the world can be done free of your goddamned meddling.
You have to hit the link to get his final thoughts.  All I can say is, "Amen, brother."

Y'know, I think I see an issue with my (over?) use of ellipses...
