random thought of the moment:
The mounting burden of taxation not only undermines individual incentives to increased work and earnings, but in a score of ways discourages capital accumulation and distorts, unbalances, and shrinks production. Total real wealth and income is made smaller than it otherwise would be. On net balance there is more poverty rather than less.

Who are the most popular screen scientists according to a
recent UK poll? Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant, Beaker. 
The Muppets
rule! Spock came in second and my idol, the Doctor (from Doctor Who), came in third.
I find the Doctor's rank a bit surprising given Doctor Who's popularity in the UK.
Maybe he'll go up in people's esteem when the new show airs in 2005.
