John Stossel, the former ABC correspondent, talking about his new show on FOX Business Network in an interview on Daily Beast:

Stossel: ...50 years ago, Ayn Rand predicted today. It sort of sums up what I’m going to be reporting about.

Interviewer: Ayn Rand predicted what?

Stossel: Big government, nice-sounding legislation like "The Preservation of Livelihood Law," which mandated that Hank Rearden’s production must not be bigger than any other steel mill, to make it a level playing field. It’s silly.

Interviewer: Is that a new law passed by this Congress?

Stossel: No, but it’s what Wesley Mouch, the evil bureaucrat in the book, passed. And what Tim Geithner and what Barney Frank might like to pass.

Frank or Geithner have never proposed such a thing nor suggested that they want to, but if some character in a novel or a comic book tried it, that's all the proof Stossel needs.

I went to the Health Care reform demonstration in Dallas, timed to coincide with the joint Eddie Bernice Johnson(D)/John Sessions(R) "town hall" meeting that was taking place in a nearby office complex.

You may see my pictures of and comments on the event at my blog post on the event:
The Robcatview: signs of hysteria

It's mostly about the AGAINST signs there. If you don't want to see crazy people, don't click on that.

Diary Police: I know this is not three solid paragraphs here, but I've already posted my pictures in my blog and I don't want to post them again to some other hosting service just to take up more column inches on Kos.

If you want to delete this, FINE. I just thought I'd share what I saw.
