<a href=search.php3?query=&topic=15&author=><img src=images/topics/globe.jpg border=0 Alt="International" align=right hspace=10 vspace=10></a>
<P>According to <A href="http://www.latimes.com/news/nation/updates/lat_somali000805.htm">this LA Times story</A> that I saw on <A href=http://www.free-market.net/>free-market.net</A>, private enterprise is booming in Somalia, which has essentially not had a government since the overthrow of the socialist regime of dictator Mohamed Siad Barre.</P>
</P>Quote #1: "In the absence of a government, religious groups emphasizing studies from the Koran typically run schools. Public hospitals collapsed, but doctors have joined to establish private hospitals and clinics that charge a nominal fee but sometimes also treat poor patients free of charge."</P>
<P>Quote #2: "...the ability to trade freely has transcended clan hostilities and done much to further reconciliation."</P>
<P>These are just two quotes from an amazing article which I urge you to read in its entirety. We libertarians spend so much time talking about what would theoretically happen in a free society - now here's a concrete, real world example.</P>

Further proof that People are basically good and only sometimes evil not vice versa... my faith is once against restored in humanity <br>
