I agree 100%. I have no confidence at all in any doctrine that begins with growing government. It's unfortunate that we still have some who are naive enough to believe that anything good can come of it. History is repleat with examples to the contrary.

It's simply amazing that, given the record, someone who proposes to cure a social problem with a new government regulation isn't horse-laughed out of the debate as emphatically as someone who proposes to cure a disease with magic beads and rattles.
