[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 717200, member: 2189"] Diesel, I wholeheartedly agree that one single system can't stand alone and thus not only a reason to discuss some form of voluntarist means, notice I said discuss, across a larger societal framework. I do think America is to big geographically and population wise and for this one reason among others is why it's not working. I also believe others on both sides of the political isle are understanding this and thus some of the sucession talk beyond the majority who use the idea for political effect. As to someone entering a phonebooth in a Clark Kent/Superman deal, I think the people who really hold to that belief are actually those voters locked into a democrat/republican state solution in that voting for a new emperor will somehow play the role of Superman and save the day. If I were one of those voters I might take exception to what I just said but the fact that in every Presidential election cycle the majority of voters look to each party to give them a savior if you will whether it be an African American man or a good ole girl whose a plain spoken salt of the earth. Democrats have their horse but republicans are as we speak looking for their own American Idol who can shame Simon and WOW the audience. Regardless of principles or past record, we even become immersed in meaningless debate over whether they wore a flagpin or saluted in a manner we hold as proper. A Superman is pure myth so there you go. This afternoon [URL="http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/04162010/profile.html"][COLOR=red]Bill Moyers Journal[/COLOR] [/URL]was quite interesting although I missed some of it. It speaks a bit towards much of what you said about "puppet on a string." As to being called a liberal, in the classical sense of 18th and 19th century tradition, I consider that claim an honor and would very much agree with it. What would really chap many here is if they found out I joined a group called "Libertarians Against Capitalism". Now go and figure that one out! :happy-very: As to having my permission to speak in any thread I post, I never realized I had such authority. Holding to an anarcho philosophy of "No Ruler" I immediately depose myself of such or any power so post away! As for "gland Cleaning" :happy-very: I'm enjoying things as they are right now so I'm very content to just enjoy the comedy of it all. :wink2: [/QUOTE]
