[4]I’m reminded of something P.J. O’Rourke once said, in regard to “affordable housing”: Every time the government promises to give you something for nothing, imagine the result if you tried this yourself. You’d quickly find yourself with a severe shortage of something and a whole lot of nothing. . . .

Read the rest[5], and try not to laugh too hard — if you’re a taxpayer, the joke’s on you.
