Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep, really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive, with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell, and when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.
-- William Saroyan

Solving Problems for the Poor

 

I first wrote about this last year, but India is now selling the Tata Nano.

This is a great example of how private industry works to solve problems and improve life for the poor.

This is also a great example of why the American government would get in the way of this kind of innovation through its nannyish tendencies. The car has no airbag, no other big safety features, only goes to 43 mph.

Government is no friend of the poor. Business is.

Question: what cost would unions bring to car production like this? Doubling the cost? Tripling the price tag?
