Jon Stewart's Liberal Challenge to Ron Paul


Here's a simple case in point.



"In contrast, in Paul's free market, when such institutio­ns mis-sell products or make bad decisions, they are fined for fraud as appropriat­e, and if the fines or their bad business decisions bankrupt them, they are gone, able to do no more harm -- ever."



With no government around to monitor or investigat­e, and no laws ("regulati­ons") to set the ground rules of business conduct, how will any business be 'fined for fraud' or anything else?



Irrational­. Incongruou­s. Illogical. Not thought all the way through.



It's the result of a desire to get weave pretzel logic around a "simple" solution (social Darwinism) that doesn't work in human society. If that's what you want, I recommend building a time machine to hurtle you back into the 1200s and savor the awesomenes­s of 'every man for himself.'
