Ideas are like rabbits.
You get a couple and learn how to handle them,
and pretty soon you have a dozen.

STOP the madness of government theft. Whatever government does, the private sector can do faster, better, and for half the cost.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
Stop the economic illiteracy. Your fascist government keeps innovative drugs off the shelves. Your fascist government kills waiting vets.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
You are beyond delusional. The government BEFORE the ObamaCare disaster was spending half the dollars in healthcare. Govt increases costs.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
You left fascist know nothing. The free market seeks to serve customers, most of who are not in the 1%. Global poverty < 10%--free market.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
#IfAlcoholDidntExist people would find other ways to ruin their lives and the lives of other people.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
The leftist obsession with private sector profits almost has me calling it "profit phobia". John Rockefeller became rich by lowering prices.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
QOTD: "We must ever remember we are refining oil for the poor man and he must have it cheap and good.” - John D. Rockefeller— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
Rockefeller dropped the price of kerosene, a substitute for whale oil, from 58 cents to 8 cents per gallon: win-win transactions.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
Profits take multiple forms (e.g., political power). We all have costs: what we spend on a good or service. https://t.co/VvaqTOSNo9— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
We allocate scare resources (our income and savings); we are better off when we lower costs. We are worse off when govt restricts the market— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 24, 2017
Nope. The government is a monopoly that can kill you or put you in a cage, and it operates on behalf of its own privileged interests.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
A private sector company engages in voluntary transactions. It can only force transactions through government action (the ObamaCare mandate)— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
If & when the private sector company can realize lucrative profits, it attracts competition. New technologies can eviscerate business models— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
I personally don't care how rich Jeff Bezos is, whether he is a tightwad or greedy. What I care about is convenience & quality @ good prices— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
First, I don't accept your definition of the public interest. Second, there are ways in the private sector to deal with preventive care.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
Anyone who believes in public rationing for healthcare, like exist in Canada and our VA system, is in denial. Govt kills innovation.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
What a leftist RETARD! We Americans spend about 6% on food--without govt supermarkets. Somehow you idiots believe in govt bureaucrats!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
It's astonishing how ignorant you left-fascists are. People weren't "dying in the streets" before government ruined healthcare.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
Utter lies. No regard for facts. There are private-sector hospitals providing premium surgical care at a fraction of the cost. No govt $.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
You are discussing government bureaucrats, left-fascist moron! Government restricts competition and lower prices, retard!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
Trump celebrates (Govt) Porkfest; we libertarians celebrate Porcfest, as in if you mess with us, you might get more than you bargained for.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) June 25, 2017
