“Law-abiding Americans deserve to know that their government will not secretly tap their phones, read their medical records, access their library accounts or otherwise invade their personal lives, with no oversight or accountability.

“Having spent years ruining the housing markets with their interference, leading to a housing meltdown that has taken the whole economy down with it, politicians have now moved on into micro-managing automobile companies and medical care.

And that is not going to happen until the voters recognize the fact that political rhetoric is no substitute for competence.” YearsWholeFactsHappensCarePoliticalCompanyEconomyTakenPoliticianMovedMedicalSubstitutesVotersRhetoricHousingCompetenceAutomobileInterferenceMoved OnMedical CareMeltdownsHousing MarketPolitical Rhetoric Author:Thomas Sowell
