Once you've ironed it out, you say, here's what I want to do, here's the right thing to do, then you have a practical problem of overcoming union resistance, political resistance, press calumny, opponents from this or that corner. That's a practical matter. But if you have it conceptually defined, You can move ahead to reform economies or reform education or reform transportation. Fine.

So you're saying basically the regulatory instrument is the market? in large part, in most part. That's the hope. Maybe I'm a dreamer. That's been in many ways my policy up to now, okay? That the best regulator is the market. The best regulator in economic activity is the market. And the best regulator in political matters is the political market. That's called elections. That's what regulates.

You have a lousy government, and people make lousy decisions. Well, you don't need the wise men raised above the masses to decide what is good and what is bad. Let the masses decide. Let them vote every four years or whatever, and they throw you up. By the way, it happened to me. There's life after political death. It was actually political.
