"We can decry stupid things like Hummers and Expeditions and Armadas but if nobody wanted them and nobody bought them... nobody would build them."

But how many people would have bought the Hummer if not for that tax loophole that let you write-off the whole price of the vehicle? It's one thing to hail the virtues of the free market but can you do it honestly if the market's been slanted by lobbyists doing backroom deals in Washington?.
