The do-gooders said that nationalizing medicine would improve health
service for everybody. It didn't. They said banning guns would reduce
gun crime. It didn't. Whether a cause or a correlation, government
programs rarely accomplish what they set out to accomplish and
always impose a cost in loss of freedom. Definitely not the MOQ way
where freedom reigns as the highest good.
