The question is, where did you develop this liberal trait?

I guess I should be insulted.

Notice I said nothing about inhibiting their pursuit of profit. I do believe there are other considerations as important, sometimes even more so.

In this case, I would think that encouraging certain interests - such as in our military hardware, or simply working with their hands instead of playing video games or watching TV - in our kids would be beneficial.

But no, someone saw a chance to make a buck.

That's the purpose of business. Social engineering.

But no, someone saw a chance to make a buck.

How dare business try to make a buck?

Oh no, it's a fine conservative trait to have those attitudes.
