Einstein said "there are liberals out there that wish for this to be a law."
I asked who. I asked what "this" was. No response.
If anyone has information on an educational program that can reach special persons, please inform me of it and how I can obtain additional information. While I am not a Christian, the Bible instructs me (I appreciate it as a work of moral philosophy) to seek to help those most in need.
twistedpuppet, Edison was a thug. He's why Hollywood was on the opposite coast of the country from the reach of his thugs.
If you want counter-arguments that show that government can make worth-while investments, I suggest you use the Manhattan project or the moon landings. These are examples of government choosing competent managers and competent technocrats to achieve huge success.
Granted, while I would probably agree with Einstein that those examples are extremely rare and occurred only in very rare cares of very technical feats to be accomplished (and, I would contend, at those historical times democratic processes were far more likely to reject failure than they would be today), chances are he wouldn't ascertain the history as such and I would be spared having to state any such agreement.
