>>hmmmm.... Maybe you can't come up with any clear example because, overall, you have it good here and don't really have much to complain about.

>Not in this thread, I'm not complaining. This all started with your remark about women jumping on any woman who is against women's lib, and black people jumping on any black guy who goes Republican.

>I'm OK here, but I want to stay OK. If things keep going with "all power to the soviets corporations", "globalization - all your base are belong to us" and dismantling of the government (except the parts which pump the tax money to corporations), there may be an uprising in my lifetime, or in the lifetime of my children, and I'm just trying my bit to prevent that.
