I knew you would attack the analogy. Uwe Hayek. -- We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion : the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history. -- Ayn Rand I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them. -- Thomas Jefferson. Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill.

The purpose of a manifesto is (1) to provoke, and (2) to make one think, hopefully in a new, open-minded and productive way. Clearly my little manifesto has provoked you! GOOOOAAAALLLL! Tonight (actually next morning) when I read your long post at a leisurely pace while I smoke a good (well, pretty good) cigar, we will see if your thoughts are useful, or just a knee-jerk reaction to anyone who challenges your sacred paradigms (read faith-based assumptions). THE GOD WHO HAS WHISPERED IN MY EAR IS NATURE (see Spinoza and Einstein for details). Keep smiling, RLO www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw
