Our free markets reward only few

I read an article, “Governor savors a simple agenda” (July 4).

Three hundred million dollars in bond issues to cover subsidies for expanding businesses? They borrow $300 million to be paid back plus interest, by the taxpayer.

That’s the way free markets work, you know, with the government deciding who gets free money so they have a huge advantage over their competition, not who has the best product or service. This is nothing but cronyism, rich and powerful people doing favors for each other to increase their power and wealth by stomping on free markets.

How about the 500 new laws passed by the General Assembly – 500 new ways for the protection of freedom and liberty to take away your freedom and liberty, all signed by the governor.
