The difference between government and reality

Great. A fierce competition to see who is the biggest socialist.
Everything can fail. Everything. Especially government, and most especially government that shuts off the private markets. And when governments fail, people are quite likely to die as a result. Everyone is better off when private markets are allowed to function, and the single greatest characteristic of private markets is exactly failure.
Thank God for it. It’s the only thing that allows success.
