That is what limited government looks like. Ditto for Somalia. I call them a neocon's paradise because these are places where neocon dreams have been realized. Yes it is bad. That is my point. Government serves an important purpose. The current peanut-related deaths and the economic meltdown are current signs of this back home. Back when Reagan was slashing the budgets for food inspection I was grumbling to my wife that people were going to die. She was upset at me for being so constantly gloomy. Now we have seen wave after wave of deaths caused by a belief that "the government is the problem." It wasn't. It isn't. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
