But Congress should weaken the FDA, which will substantially lower the cost of developing new drugs and make them cheaper for consumers. There is no evidence that doing so will affect salmon populations in any measurable way. On the other hand, it is clear that destroying the dams would have a terrible effect on Washington's farmers and economy. In light of that, I'm not sure why we're even considering it. If we don't like how companies do business, we should boycott them, not outlaw them.
Guns can be frightening.
But giving Big Government the power to control whether average citizens can own them is terrifying. Studies have shown time and again that private gun ownership helps reduce crime. Individuals should trade with whomever they want. The government should not choose for them. If I want to buy a Cuban cigar or sell autos to China, that's my own personal business.
