Tree hugging liberals are funny that way. You can argue with them until you've exhausted every last resource known to man, !!!1 and they'll still walk away with with a thumb up their asses.

They're a different breed that's for sure. :dunno:

Two quotes that explain a lot of whats going on;

"The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods."[H. L. Mencken]

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves money from the public treasure. From that moment on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most money from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's great civilizations has been two hundred years. These nations have progressed through the following sequence: from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from dependency back to bondage." [Alexander Tyler]
 
"...........from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from dependency back to bondage."

So, anyone want to pinpoint where we are in the "Democratic Society Lifecycle"? I'm thinking somewhere between 6 and 8.......and I'm wondering, with all of our technology, wealth and knowledge, why can't the leaders of our country recognize this and take corrective action, so as to not repeat the cycle?

I guess the answer lies somewhere between the insatiable lust for power and the insatiable lust for wealth, which both cloud the judgement of once wise men and lead them down the path of personal destruction......along with all who choose to follow.
