Great observations. Too bad our “Rulers” prevent most entrepreneurs from doing this.

Seriously, it’s past time to rethink this whole “rule by winners of popularity contests” thing. They are moribund, visionless assholes.

I'm thinking, if we are to survive, we're going to need to start ignoring those "rulers." Take back our streets - you know, the ones we've paid for? - not violently. But like this.

Thanks!

There’s so much more to be said about this too. I envision a street-vendor revolution - much like what I saw develop in post-reform Vietnam and China, for example.

But of course those in power in those countries had the wisdom to recognize that communism was killing people, so they started allowing people to trade freely. It’s hard to imagine that kind of wisdom coming to our shores.
