"During the nineteenth century, mankind came close to economic freedom, for the first and only time in history. Observe the results. Observe also that the degree of a country's freedom from government control, was the degree of its progress. America was the freest and achieved the most." - Ayn Rand

Think we'll ever get there again?

    This was the time when man created more new technologies than any other time in the history of the world.

    I don't know, but when I started working in the defense industry in 1984 no one would have predicted that the USSR would fall apart in six years.
