Maybe someone should've told him that people werent forced to buy Pintos.
But that's probably just me.

Or, how about the fact that Pintos would NOT explode upon impact, it was all a bogus scare brought on by attention-seeking media? See the scientific examination of the evidence:

Facts: The car was no more fire-prone than other cars of the time. The fatality rates were actually LOWER than similar-sized cars. And, oh yeah, this document supposedly showing that Ford was greedy and unfeeling was a document based on NHTSA regulations. Yes, that phrase everyone says is so indicative of free market greed is FROM THE GOVERNMENT!

And what about how corn syrup was used mainly because it was cheap thanks to goverment grants?

I did hear about that.  Shows how if the state really was serious about improving the public health, that's the first thing they'd fix.  But of course, that would mean facing the lobbyists and we wouldn't want that would we?
I recently heard that the word heretic is derived from the greek work heriticos which means "able to choose"
