I have noticed that as well. If you say you are going to help people and make some cursory gesture towards that ends then you are lauded as some sort of selfless hero. Whether or not people are actually better off is seemingly irrelevant. Its just the act of 'wanting to help' that matters.

It seems to me that opponents of 'Free Market' stuff their fingers into their ears and begin to hum very loudly when they are told that people can organize and contribute to a common goal without being forced to do it.

I don't think anyone here has been to a farm.

I suppose you've never had to end something's life to cease its suffering?
