"And ss we've seen, any time the government gets involved in trying to affect a price, it creates bubbles. When those bubbles burst, we are in a world of hurt."

But eveyone enjoys bubbles, so it seems to me that the bubbles aren't the problem, just the bursting. So, obviously, the state just has to focus its efforts on keeping the surface tension on those various bubbles juuuuuuuuuuust right to keep them from blowing up. Why am I the only one who sees this?

I prefer tiny bubbles.

Don Imus|6.2.11 @ 4:10PM|#

I prefer nappy-headed bubbles.

Don Osmond|6.2.11 @ 4:18PM|#

I prefer happy-ending bubbles

Clementine|6.2.11 @ 4:24PM|#

I don't like bubbles, soft and fine.

You're fired!

Off topic:
Did I miss where Reason was all over this story or do the Hit & Run editors not find it newsworthy that Rand Paul doesn't believe in the first amendment? http://www.salon.com/news/opin.....index.html

"But if someone is attending speeches from someone who is promoting the violent overthrow of our government, that's really an offense that we should be going after -- they should be deported or put in prison."

Paul|6.2.11 @ 4:13PM|#

Interesting story. I'd also be interested in the counter story that suggest Salon is interested in the first amendment.

By the way, your link doesn't work.

Volokh covered this.

Sorry about the link. The bigger question, though, is whether Reason is interested in the First Amendment. Why no coverage of this statement from Paul? Or did I miss it?

Fuck off, rather.

Paul|6.2.11 @ 4:18PM|#

How do you do that? Do you Rathar?

Paul|6.2.11 @ 4:19PM|#

*have Rathar* that is.

Dumbshit troll has used that retarded joke handle before. She posts under a thousand names, but can't resist going back to one that wasn't remotely funny in the first place.

SugarFree, I love your paranoia. When you need a an insulin fix, do you wonder if I tampered with it too?

Hmm, I might
