I like to think about these things in simple day-to-day life terms and when I do I think about it this way; If I walk into a nice home as a guest I'm going to be very careful, but if I walk into a nasty looking place I might just light up a cigarette and put my feet up on the coffee table. That has nothing to do with this video but whenever I think of "broken window" that's all that ever comes to mind.

“Here’s why I preferred Obama to McCain: The GOP gave up all pretense of any limited government principles. They’re no longer trustworthy on the issues where they’re supposed to agree with me. Obama, on the other hand, made some promises about government transparency, hinted at a less bellicose foreign policy, and I like what he said about Guantanamo, torture, and executive power. In other words, he was better on the issues where Democrats are supposed to agree with me. It’s really that simple.”
