Mr. Agassi illustrates the problem I have with those who promote “Alternatives.” In the end, they always insist on putting the competition out of business. And if their heavily subsidized alternatives doesn’t work? Can you bring the murdered (and heavily taxed) industry back? And will people invest in any business that is not a favorite of some Washington Politician?

I wish Mr. Agassi all the best in a straight up competition with the “old ways.” But if he wants Godzilla government to smash the old establish industries (and his own words say that he does), than I wish him failure and the rest of us success. Unfortunately, given the current crowd in Washington, I expect the entire US to get pantsed and only the political wire puller “entrepreneurs” like Mr. Agassi to prosper.
