Government regulation? How awful! We should never mess with the business of business! The system will alway correct itself without our intervention! Government is the problem, not the solution!

tied up in crowded stables adjoining city distilleries and fed the hot alcoholic 
mash left from making whiskey. This too was doctored — with plaster of Paris to 
take away the blueness, starch and eggs to thicken it and molasses to give it 
the buttercup hue of honest Orange County milk. This newspaper attributed the 
deaths of up to 8,000 children a year to this vile fluid.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F75C9D98-CCDA-4B21-8410-21452E229202/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
