I stand foursquare before you to stand behind you.
I wholeheartedly endorse education for the intelligent and stupidity
for the stupid -- it's /so/ much cheaper in the short run, and /
infinitely/ cheaper than a car designed by an enginer who can't even
spell it.
Not to mention a "government."
I am a strong proponent of National Insurance -- or State Fume,
American Formaldehyde, Prude Dental, or small lizards -- provided the
choice to insure is up to the insured, and not up to a little boy (or
girl, let's be Fair) with a Degree in coc... ah, Political "Science."
I am absolutely for Universal Socialised Medicine -- the kind /
everybody/ can get out of a bottle for $3.95 for 500 tablets at Wal-
Mart or $10.95 a liter at Happy Harry's.
d00d, it don't get no more social than that.
But I did not particularly "like" closed, postpubescent, homosexual
social clubs ("hallmark" psychopaths, Type I psychopaths,
fraternities, sororities, "police," religious terrorists,
"werewolves," Colored Shirts with Holy Numbers on them, all names for
the same phenomenon) in high school or college, and I like even less
their continuous "proposals" to own everybody they think they've heard
of because they think they've heard of them.
And I like even less anybody who "proposes" delivering the body
politick to them -- e.g., lining the entire student body up at
gunpoint for an hour every Friday afternoon for six years to fondle
their nonexistent "man"hoods, rah, rah -- by claiming that he can add
zeros by counting them.
E.g., "We must find out for them what more they want and give it to
them, so that they do not have these *feelings* at us [and shoot up
the playpen]."
I am quite frankly puking sick of the concept of Stockholm Syndrome
as the fundamental theorem of goverment.
A "voting punch" is a sword or bayonet, and the "voter registration
form" in this country is commonly called a "DD Form 214," because
that's what you ask for if you want a copy.
What you wanna call "votes," well, every "vote" in this country is
counted every ten years, and the poor little demos and repos have yet
to attain a plurality, let alone the required "majority" (another
illiteracy; I earned majority -- knighthood -- in my own proper
person, and the sum of minors is minority), in the entire history of
this country.
So, what /do/ you call a little boy who wins the "election" for
President by the biggest landslide in history?
A "civil servant."
What "political discussion"?
This is a poultry froup, and that was a language lesson.
