Greed! Greed! Greed! Holy shit Med ... is there anything of substance to your thinking?
And no ... I won't be seeing it your way anytime soon. "Your way" is walking down the road to serfdom ... and I won't be going that way, thank you very much.

Vi | Are you taking the greed thing to heart. Must be as it seems it's gettin to ya. If you have no excess greed then you must not be what I surmise. Hell maybe you can walk on water, I did it once! |

Nope, not taking the greed thing to heart. And what the hell is "excess" greed? Is there a certain allotment of greed that's acceptable? Who makes the rules on greed and who passes greed out? As far as I know, greed, being the desire for self preservation, is a natural human trait. Other than making sure that that natural trait is positively directed, I see no reason to limit it, because the only way to limit a natural trait is through intimidation and force. That doesn't sound like freedom to me, Med ... does it sound like freedom to you?

Not opinion at all, Med. I've read history ... and I know how totalitarian governments, in an attempt to survive, try to limit or abolish human traits.

Vi | So, do you believe we have a totalitarian govt. in existence now? Or do you believe the Democrats will make it so? |

I believe that we have traveled a long way toward totalitarianism ... and BOTH parties are at fault. The reason I say that the Democrats are the more dangerous of the two parties is that they are on the fast track to serfdom and the Republicans are on the slow track.
