Quote by: Winter wind "To help an inefficient, ill-located, unnecessary school is a waste...it is highly probable that enough money has been squandered on unwise educational projects to have built up a national system of higher education adequate to our needs, if the money had been properly directed to that end."
--John D. Rockefeller.
| So Rockefeller invested in a business that he thought would be succesful, and it was. Good for him. He risked his own money on what he thought would work. He didn't risk anyone elses. and I note he advises against squandering it on unwise projects because that has already happened enough. Again, I agree with him very much. Government aid is just such a squandering of other peoples money.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
