You probably avoid them as I try to but their heads are fun to play with as I am able to often leave them completely confused as to their political beliefs which is the first step on the way to deprogramming them of "laissez faire capitalism." This was product of the "greed is a virtual" 1990s and the "anything for business" attitude it squired. They wrap themselves in the "think and grow rich" maya and go about damaging the world. They are responsible for "to stupid to be human" again stealing the presidency.
As an example my neighbor and I were discussing the poor mail delivery around here one day. We wind up getting other people mail which is very dangerous in this day in age of identity theft and the credit card robber barons who won't believe you if you tell them you never got your statement (because it was delivered to a neighbor's house who just dumped it in the trash). Anyway my neighbor started spouting that the postal service needs to be privatized (as I wince). Ten minutes later this same neighbor was complaining about the phone company and then a little later the cable company. So privatization is good, right? You have to point out their inconsistent thinking to them. Then they wander away in a daze. ;-) To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!' Yahoo!
