Now we're carrying it a bit too far. That is completely absurd.
Competition and free enterprise and doing things for profit is exactly why
this country is the best place it the world to live.

I'd also like to point out that if our founding fathers had that attitude,
this country would be nowhere today... probably still a British colony, or
