Above all else, things must be fair
Posted on13. Oct, 2011 by Tommy Newberry.
For statists, above all else, things must be fair. And by “things,” they mean everything. And by “fair,” they don’t mean equal opportunity or equal rules—they mean equal outcomes.

Politicians in both parties have let us down. Republicans and democrats alike have had ample opportunity to behave and legislate effectively and they have failed. They have failed miserably.
