It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? for the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop. Growth is exciting; growth is dynamic and alarming. Growth of the soul, growth of the mind.
-- Vita Sackville-West

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?
