Re: "Demolibs think they know what's good for everybody, but the only thing that really does is the market."

If you and Srexley are such "free market" advocates, then why do we have so much corporate welfare in this country? Why does every business sector in the country hire lobbyists by the dozen to solicit special breaks from Congress?

Srexley is the king of Repug spin. Lots of sweeping one-liners. You're not far behind him with "Legislated solutions are always wrong." Let's see. Federal legislation aimed at keeping cigarettes (and cigarette ads) away from kids is but one example of hundreds where the federal government did the right thing.

I trust Uncle Sam a helluva lot more than I trust Big Business to do the right thing. That's where you and I really disagree.
