Quote of the Day: Up From Poverty + "Governments Cannot Make Wealth"

Quote:

And when government protects their freedom, the world's growing population of entrepreneurs, in the bargain, expands human dignity and establishes the foundation of ongoing growth on which civil society ultimately depends.
Read the whole thing. Interesting stuff.
