The right to free speech is infinitely more important than the right to carry mass-produced signs and giant puppets in public.

The right to watch sports is more important than the right to watch college basketball.

Btw, does anyone ever chant "Guernica!  Guernica!" at these rallies.  They should.

This sounds more like a solution for sensible countries. :hmm:

Thatcher already tried that.  And look where it got us: fewer coal mines.

Do you mean the policies that have never even correlated with prosperity in the US, except for about 15 years in the early 20th century (and even then it's pretty arguable)?

We should bring back the sky high taxes and enormous bureaucracy of the 19th century.
