i dont want the government to "take care of" me. i want it to leave me the hell alone. it was never created to coddle the people, only to protect their liberties from other people and governments. a voluntary contract or trade between 2 companies, 2 individuals, or a company and an individual is the product of a market no government could ever begin to understand. why do people continue insisting that a government of faceless, largely unelected paper pushers knows better than you, i, or these companies whats in our own self interests? if you can't predict markets, neither can a government, yet the government has the ability to try, and it always fails. every single time. if preventing 1 company from providing a benefit to its customers (streaming xbox TV not counting against caps) is considered "consumer protection", then leave me the hell alone. i think can take care of my self, thanks. |
