Words that were spoken.
If you want to say you wouldn't have a business if it weren't for roads or the internet, then that is what you should say. The thought that roads would exist without the business that actually pay for them in ridiculous. Industry drives government, not the other way around.
Taken out of context is the big argument, then keep things in context and you won't look like a douche to the hundreds of thousands of people that DO make it happen on their own.

Perhaps someone that has never really had to work in order to earn should keep his comments about those of us that do to himself.

great post... the only exception I take is with the last sentence.. I would imagine being the President of the USA is one of the most stressful, time consuming, hard working job that anyone can have.

very true.. at least it was not supposed to be done to make a living.. but all you see is career politicians these days who make quite a good living by screwing the American citizens.
