What if government did not put so many onerous regulations in front of potential market winners? What if business really was fair and the government did not allow itself to be manipulated by competitors to attack new entrepreneurs? What if every company had to compete and deliver the best they could to the market place? What if the regulators were honest people and actually smart enough to follow their stated mission in their agencies? What if government was not so damn corrupt and what if markets were really free? What would happen then? Who would benefit and should we even bother to try to untangle this mess and make it so or are we all better off with this liberty butchering status quo? What if we as a society encouraged entrepreneurs and insisted that our government make rules to promote that activity rather than trying to demonize it? What if entrepreneurs with the flow of fresh new ideas and innovations continually flooded our markets? What if we did not condemn those who have made it to the top, instead thanked them? What if the rules and regulations were set up to try to find was to streamline the mind field that the entrepreneurs face rather than slow them down and find ways to control them? What if government regulators and lawyers who had never ever had to make a paycheck were barred from harassing these pillars of our economic question? What if we refuse to address these issues in the future, where will be then? Think on this or you may as well start learning Chinese now. |
