Who built it?, August 15
Passing a small business in Flint with a sign proclaiming “”The Government Didn't Build This Business” made me think that business owners like this must possess some great secrets for success that they should share with the rest of us.

How, for instance were they able to construct all the roads to enable your customers to reach you? How did they produce their own water and electricity and phone service and your cable television access? Do they forgo any use of the U.S. Postal Service? Do they have their own police protection, fire department and medical facilities?

Do they not enjoy the freedoms fought for by the government's armed forces?

If any of the above are not applicable, perhaps they might remove that sign.

If all of these statements are true, please share with the rest of us how we can also survive without any government “interference.”
