I need to correct my previous post. When I said politicians don’t understand free market principles, I was mistaken. I bet most of them understand the free market works best, but where’s the power and money in that??? As other FReepers noted, there’s a lot of government money to be made on global warming and green energy. It’s collusion on a massive scale. Our nation, our future, is being plundered right in front of us!
Subsidies come from taxation, but our government no longer serves as the representation of the people or the best interests of the nation as a whole.
Con artists have found a better get-rich-quick hustle than a typical pyramid scam:
GET ELECTED.
