Weighing Michael Phelps Down With Weights

Quote of the week!

“If you bound the arms and legs of gold-medal swimmer Michael Phelps, weighed him down with chains, threw him in a pool and he sank, you wouldn't call it a ‘failure of swimming'. So, when markets have been weighted down by inept and excessive regulation, why call this a ‘failure of capitalism'?”

It's not Capitalism that has failed - it's government intervention and regulations that have ruined our economy. (Read Eamon Butler at Timesonline.com).
