January 26, 2010 at 9:47 AM #505786sdduuuudeParticipant[quote=MicroGravity]To use the coke vs. pepsi analogy: Once the government has been empowered to choose which will be the national drink, coke and pepsi will abandon any effort to please the consumer or convince the consumer of its superiority and instead spend all its effort and capital trying to influence the legislature that gets to make that decision for the masses.
Congratulations! Rather than having two companies vying for your dollar, and likely doing everything in their power to convince you to buy their stuff–both in good ways, such as making a better, cheaper product, and in bad ways, trying trick you to make you think you’ll improve your life by buying their product–now some drink czar gets to tell you what to drink, using your tax dollars and the power of the law to compel you.
[/quote]This is well put. The more decisions the govt makes for you, the more money lobbyists will spend towards convincing the government to benefit their clients. It is exactly what is happening.
It is exacly why we can get rid of the lobbyists by reducing the role of government in countless things it has no business being a part of.
