Quote of the Day
"So-called "progressives" actively wage war on progress. They're opposed to dams, which spurred the growth of California. They're opposed to air-conditioning, which led to the development of the Southwest. They're opposed to light bulbs, which expanded man's day, and they're opposed to automobiles, which expanded man's reach. They're still nominally in favor of mass transit, so maybe we can go back to wood-fired stream trains? No, sorry, no can do. The progressives are opposed to logging; they want a ban on forestry work in environmentally sensitive areas such as forests. Ultimately, progressives are at war with mass prosperity."
