		<description>[...] While you ponder the question, consider that decades ago the U.S. government took over control of passenger rail service. The National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) is a government-owned corporation. Despite the promise of becoming self-sufficient, Amtrak continues to be heavily subsidized by the U.S government. After decades of subsidies, Amtrak has proven to be incapable of operating as a business and has been described as a &#8220;mobile money-burning machine.&#8221; America&#8217;s founders envisioned a country based on individual freedoms and limited government, n...

		<description>Ivan, agreed. my intention is not to pervert rand or Mr. Ward. Their contributions and this sites contributions to society will no doubt go down in history as extremely prescient and illuminative. I visit IC almost daily. You&#039;ll NOTICE if you reread the passage that the whole point is that we have been duped or &quot;fooled&quot;. So the perceived perversion you speak of may have ended up in your head and not mine. And Libertypatriot made the tweet not me. Perhaps something has gotten over you Ivan. The truth is that our so called &quot;democracy&quot; is in fact one party rule and not two, which would be a mockery in itself. As long as this grand myth perpetuates itself through time we are all going to suffer dearly, then again most won&#039;t even realize it. The conditioning has been that severe. To be sure some who claim allegiance to either side have hearts in the right place, but what good is that if they are not willing to act.</description>

		<description>Hey Hankreardon
Nanu Nanu
Maybe you didn&#039;t notice, but the power that lies with us elected every POTUS since 1913. Mr Ward made some good points as did Ayn Rand. Please do not pervert thier work with your tweets.</description>

		<description>cheerio! it certainly isn&#039;t free market capitalism. hasn&#039;t been since 1913ish. if we all focus on the real threat; a fiat government with unbelievable and unimaginable control over the shape and direction of our world and society itself, controlled from the shadows of power, much of which does not even eminate from within our borders or more appropriately stated, what is left of them. 
take a dollar bill out and look at that pyrimad, the con is on and we literally carry it on our persons and in our souls, trade with it, cherish it, are immensely proud of it, have been fooled by it. the final arbitors of our destinies exist on top of that pyramid and do not</description>
