Well, Old P. (May I call you Old P.? I'll use . if you prefer. Fine, Old
P. it is, then. Thanks). Well, Old P., if we had truly free market economics
in this country you could use your intelligence to ascertain what market
niche was ready for exploitation, and fill it with a better product than
what is already there. You capture a market segment, and the denizens of
that niche get a better product through your introducing more competition
for their dollar. Everybody wins.

Of course, Old P., if you're willing to just settle for turning the third
nut from left on an assembly line somewhere, you are not a suitable
candidate for such entreprenuerial activity. You would, however, still
benefit from the free market by having more competition for your dollar.
It's always a win/win when truly free markets exist.

By the way, you should work on writing simple declarative sentences; your
syntax is terrible.

There, feel better now Old P.?

Dennis
