    Unless government is funded by donations. :P
    I usually disagree with Diurdi, but so far he's the only one not delving into semantic minutiae or hyperbolically questioning pragmatics.

    the enormous amount of regulation has made it so that little companies can not compete with the big companies anymore. Just heard an interview of Bernie Marcus the co founder home depot and he mentions he could not do what they did in the '70's now because of regulatory laws like Sarbanes-Oxley.
