Quote of the Day

"The vast amount of human activity ought to be none of the government's business." -- Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) at a press conference on his proposal to end federal penalties for Americans carrying fewer than 100 grams of marijuana. I agree with Frank on pot (and online gambling), but I wish he'd extend his libertarianism to the vast amount of human activity that goes on in the economic sphere.
