>> The government, rather than helping, usually gets in the way. This is exactly right. Most successful people want nothing to do with it. I guess if he wants to call "roads" and "military protection" government services, that's fine -- but all the wealthy people I've known paid through the nose for these things. That was about one of the stupidist remarks I've seen here.

The government, rather than helping, usually gets in the way. Are you kidding, the government IS this country. Remember the Constitution? Government work. Without government we would still be a British colony... not the United States of America. Jeez it amazes me how much you guys hate this country. Everything we have comes from our form of government.
