and furthermore, the government cant "make food less expensive" they can only tax us and then the food really isnt cheaper, is it, because you paid for it in taxes. and you didnt even pay for the food you chose, you paid for the food that has the best lobby in washington. thanks alot.

also it just is a lie that food is expensive at all.

if you want to kill people by the millions, make african farming impossible, make sure millions of people cant sutain themselves but instead rely on the shaky help of american taxpayers, then by all means favor efforts by the government tyo manage food prices.

listen, the only thing that really protects you is the market, and specifically, choice. hi rent? move. cheeseburgers too expensive? buy rice. if you have the freedom to choose, the market manages things. landlords and food sellers want to sell you things. yunno why south LA sugar farms dont work as well as they used to? because corn is subsidized because big government lunatics want to manage things. so we are floodded with corn sugar, destroying cane farms worldwide. but hey, you want cheap food right? you want somebody to pay tax dollars to help "manage" our food supply? well good work, you are a destroyer of the global food supply, restrictor of human progress.

cant you see that people dont want to price things so high that you cannot afford it? you dont need the governemtn to protect you! that just destroys the fdreedom of choice that the market gives you. and that freedom, that power to choose, this is the only thing that protects you.

Like me, martin understands the pitfalls of government intervention. LaSalle professes to be self sufficient but still expects the government to be his guardian angel (sorry about the metaphor, martin).

1) There is no such thing as a free enterprise economy.
2) What you define as a free enterprise economy is exactly why we have the economic issues in America today.

Unchecked greed and creative (unethical) financial practices led to a crisis that almost put the entire world in a depression.

This is stupid. Do you not understand that the free market would have put all these terrible greedy corporations right out of business? The ultimate check was there. The market was working. The the stupid government decided it new better than the invisible hand, and saved all these horrible corps that made billions ripping off irresponsible and stupid people at the cost of a trillion or so dollars.

this is the sort of attitude that destroys cities. the way to make rent lower is to kill public housing, kill rent control, and get the damn government out of it.

listen for a secdond and stop being an *******. you should not want the governmen t to take sides in your exchanges of goods and services. your landlord and you can agree on the rent, and thts it. if the government makes an effort to make your rent lower, it ruins everything. rent controls have ****ed up the entire market here in new york. i pay more than i should because morons like you think the government should fight to make rent lower. attempted managemt of rent by the government means less construction, housing shortages and artificial restriction of supply. eventually landlords abandon building altogether because it isnt profitable (this basically set the bronx afire in the 70's and turned all olf new york into a ruined ****hole). and some lucky idiots are scamming the rest of us by holing up in a rent controlled apartment for 500 when the rest of us are paying 2300. that money has to be made up somewhere, and it means higher rent for market rate renters (and a housing shortage, which means even higher rent for market rate renters). so i take the hit because a ****ing ******* like you thinks the government should fight to keep his rent low, thanks alot, prick. seriously.

thereby riuning our entiure ****ing food system, fattening everyone, and destroying food markets around the world, and killing millions by mismanaging our food supply, nice ****ing job.

thatsz not the role of government. and this is not an exaggeration. your sort of thinking gets people killed.

the market protects us from being gouged. unless an idiot like you uses the government to mangle the market so our food and rent prices are artificial and ruined. again. you are a force for evil, you make the world worse, you have not a ****ing clue.

i would love to not be gouged on rent. but too bad for me there are apartments i could rent for decent prices, but i cant because they are controlled. the landlords hate it, i hate it, everyone paying market rates hates it. but some ******* gets to live for nothing, ass-raping his landlord, who raises the rent on others because of people like you.

and the farmer in africa, he wants to feed his kids, but he cant because the american government is subsidizing food, and grain prices are so low he cant make a profit. thanks alot, you are killing people. you thought the governmetn should manage food prices!

i am not kidding, what you believe is wrong, stupid, evil, destroys society and causes immeasurable misery.

When people say stuff like this I am pretty sure they don't know what the market is.
