This! x 1000000000 That statement sums it all up. Part of the freedom to succeed is the risk of failing. By insuring against failure, the State just makes the whole system all the more inefficient and unstable.
All the bailout mania of 2009 is beginning to reap its harvest now and it will continue to do so until all the excess air let out of the bubble and people's ENTITLEMENT mentality changes
I'm not just talking about social welfare entitlements but business entitlement as well.
Freedom to Fail = Freedom to succeed. Both are linked. Try to crush one while propping up the other and you'll find yourself trying to catch a falling flaming knife.
