    It seems safe to say that AS has sold between 6,000,000 and 7,000,000 copies and possibly more. Why squander limited time on moral defectives like this fellow?

    When I read it earlier and then some of comments, I was immediately exhausted by the energy being wasted on the mis-understandings and attempts to explain what they don't understand, but think they do. I couldn't leave fast enough.

    You are correct, good call. It also only applies to companies with poor morals. But it still applies.

    That's depressing.

    I think it makes sense businesses move to less free States. It's easier for them to get special favors from the government. Of course they'll move to a state where they don't have to build their own roads, or train their own employees, and on top of it receive tax payer subsidies just for being there. It's screwing over the individuals. It's also unsustainable in the long run. Those states will tax the populace so much that they won't be able to afford what the state is producing. Plus the companies know they can charge higher prices in states where the individual has more money, giving the company incentive to export the majority of what it produces.

    Of course business moves to the less free area, their going to milk it and move on.

    No. That’s a bad idea and I’ll give you good reasons.

    1. The last time you sent me out into the cyber-heavens to mount a crusade the little minions followed me back.

    2. Your husband is quite capable of speaking for himself. I’ve read that with my own eyes.

    3. 8.5k does not meet credibility level on Facebook. Smile. They are barely likable. If they ever cross the ten-thousand fan level, then, let’s talk. But for now...you probably got a bunch of activist atheists who are bored to death on the days when he wants to attack Ayn Rand.
    I know a group on Facebook-- the GOP stoppers that have tens of thousands of fans and most ‘rational’ people have never heard of them. (They do come up with some side-splitting memes.)

    How is your husband involved? You can PM me if you prefer not to go into detail on the open board.
