JP, some good points. I agree with them. To be clear, I was comparing government fleecing, both bad though contrasting magnitude; where perhaps the message was where our rage would best be suited. And yeah, my point was exactly I'd rather get my 14k gold ring stolen from my finger than getting ... ..... and generations getting ....... Its a reasonable decision.
Agree about most of your points. Life offers many contradictions bro. 1984. Its happening. Meanwhile I wanted to go to Indy again. It was a trip of a lifetime.
Oh yeah, I mean I personally don't want it to come down to a choice of having a ring stolen from my finger or being ... ...... I'd like to avoid both altogether and find a better solution. However, given the realities of our political system, no sane, rational person will ever run for political office. So we're stuck with the system we deserve.
I would have gone to Indy in spite of everything I typed only because it's infinitely more preferable than going to Texas...a state that should be lopped off of the United States. But yeah life is all about the contradictions and hypocrisy. 1984 indeed. Endless "war" against non-existent enemies and the like.
