Not to stray too far from the original topic, but who do you see as a candidate you would champion?

I would also be interested what you feel should be the role of a democratic government in overseeing and regulating how business should operate.  Do you think we interfere too much?

 
That's a good question, I honestly can't name one.  I thought the Republican candidates so far are overall bad, but wow, the Democrats answer with Hillary, Bernie, and now O'Malley? They have to have a decent candidate.  I'll say O'Malley is the biggest joke of the three in the Democrat clown car so far.  A failed governor has no business running for President.

I do think our government goes a bit overboard in regulating business operations.

Ok, could you offer a specific example of how we've gone too far?

Chew on this graph for a while:

It always amazes me how many "middle class" folks cheerlead for the people and the system that produce this disparity.

Well, Trader, if you can explain that, then you should write a book.  It's funny and sad how many nations allowed themselves to get sucked into the black hole of plutocratic oligarchy and cheered all the way down the highway until they hit the wall at the end of the road and said, "what the hell was I thinking?"
