"It was Thomas Edison who brought us electricity, not the Sierra Club. It was the Wright brothers who got us off the ground, not the Federal Aviation Administration. It was Henry Ford who ended the isolation of millions of Americans by making the automobile affordable, not Ralph Nader. Those who have helped the poor the most have not been those who have gone around loudly expressing "compassion" for the poor, but those who found ways to make industry more productive and distribution more efficient, so that the poor of today can afford things that the affluent of yesterday could only dream about." ~Thomas Sowell At 6/01/2010 1:52 PM, DrTorch said...

DrTorch said - "And don't forget, Rockefeller saved the whales." Yes, far more of them than Greenpeace can even imagine saving. But, by doing so, he almost single-handedly destroyed the US whaling industry.
