Paul,

    So you would see no difference between living in an authoritarian 
state with no respect for civil or economic liberties (Let's say 
Mussolini's Italy) and a social democratic state that ignores your 
economic liberties but at least gives you some degree of personal 
freedom (Let's say today's Sweden).  As I said before, if I'm being the 
chance to vote, I will vote.  Even if I'm not pleased with who I am 
voting for, I can be proud to vote against the greater evil.
