In fairness, McDonalds franchises are pretty much the most expensive ones, at upwards of a $million. Not everyone has that kind of change under the cushions of their couch.

I am reminded when former Senator George McGovern, had retired, the Great Liberal, he bought and tried to run and bed and breakfast in Vermont. It failed and went bankrupt. His comment was he never dreamed how hard it was to run a business and what the average businessman went through. What Irony given he helped pass so much legislation to make it so hard. What a Flaming Hypocrite.
He did seem to repent, at least by implication - so I give him that much credit.

But my point relates to Term Limits: Our problem is people who make a lifetime’s living as political officials. We need term limits, but we also need a minimum age requirement of 35 for most government officials. We need people who already did run a business, or at least learn a trade, before the briefly serve in elected office. The bad news is, we will have to actually pay for the talent we want and need. We want people with professions to sacrifice a few years of seniority in their professions and they shouldn’t have to make sustain other hardships to do so. A congressman needs a residence in Washington, and he needs money to retain his home in his district as well.

So the pay should be good, but the job should be temporary - and no pension, because we don’t want “lifers."

Grundle has been on this site since 2001.

So has HG. But you haven't. And Grundle is a noob.

Your point was?

My blog has gotten more than 900,000 hits

Amazingly, that is quite close to the number of retarded persons in the United States.

Maybe you could list them. You like lists.

Ah, I see. So it’s more a case of delusion of grandeur than mere presumptuousness...

Not only that, but afterwards McGovern said that if he only knew then what he learned now from his failing business, he would not have been what he was in the Congress.

If the ass hole had any integrity he would have railed up and down about that last bit.

Liberals think that giving people other people’s money generates economic activity, but it actually destroys wealth.

When they take money from rich guy to give to poor guy, rich guy loses the boat he could have spent that money to buy.

The libtardians will say “Well the poor guy will spend that money on stuff he NeeeeeEEEEddds... The rich guy does NEEEeeed a boat”

But the rich guy could have HIRED the poor guy to build him the boat. The poor guy gets the money (for stuff he NeeeedEEeeddsss) AND learns a trade, AND (!!!) the rich guy get’s his money back in the form a a boat, so he lost nothing.

In the first example the money is taken away and he gets nothin- in the second he gives the money away in exchange someone builds him a boat.

WELFARE DESTROYS WEALTH

It's hard to give respect to a Gary Johnson voting blogpimp who names himself after his own Gooch.

My former Communist representative David Bonior lamented the same thing. After he retired, he was helping one of his children who had a restaurant and was whining how expensive it was to make a profit. My sympathy was zero

Yes but later on kept supporting the same policies that put him out of business.

What makes you believe anyone actually read your blog/challenge? Sounds presumptuous.

That applies equally to your post, dummy...
