110. Nope...
That's the failing of liberterianism....

Their inability to distinguish between self directed and other directed acts...


If a company is blowing crap into the air it affects me and by the time I get around to suing them it could be too late... And to add insult to injury the Republicans want to remove the regulations that prevent companies from hurting folks and then turn around and say you can't sue them when you are injured in the name of tort reform...

In a nutshell I believe the market is the best deliverer of goods and services and it's the job of the government to regulate those markets....



And of course folks should act with integrity...
