America has a strange way of rewarding success. We punish our strongest industries with stringent labor laws (remember the NLRB of the 1970's)), equal employment laws, safety laws, and pollution laws.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
