This is really a fantastic quote from Alan
Liberals/progressives/socialists are usually people who are insulated from their own bad decisions. The trust fund kid, the welfare mother, the tenured professor, the union boss, the government employee, the wealthy CEO. When you lower the cost of something you get more of it so decreasing the cost of bad decisions means we get more of them.
That’s why social safety nets are a really bad idea.
Have you ever noticed the people who say that places like New York City, or Boston are triumphs of gun control laws aren’t walking their dog in the park after midnight or living in low-income housing in the city.
Their decisions are GREAT because they decided they were and feel no need to analyze the results! When they do see the ugly truth…well that’s all George Bush’s fault!
