You can't separate economic values from humanitarian values. Free markets not only save lives, they let countless lives prosper!

Remember when you would speak regularly in NYC and you only asked for donations? I recall one night you said you weren't getting enough $ and if that didn't change you would have to stop. Talk to me about economic values again.

Real liberty can exist only where exploitation has been abolished, where there is no oppression of some by others, where there is no unemployment and poverty, where a man is not haunted by the fear of being tomorrow deprived of work, of home and of bread." -Stalin

Maybe so, but how would you compel people off the crack of capital? What would have to happen over the course of a Williamson Administration for the majority of Americans to kick the habit of consumption?
