Can you take the political discussions to PM. This board is for the discussion of JDSU. It seems like everybody seems to be spending more time discussing socialism or econmics and not JDSU. I realize I am not the thread monitor but things ares starting to get out of hand. Out of every 100 posts, it seems like 10 of them pertain to JDSU and the others are off topic. Please use your private mail to discuss these topics.

OT: Socialism is succeeding in harnessing capitalism to the service of humanity.

Got news for you, buddy. Capitalists are humanity. What did you think -- we're some kind of alien life-form?

Of course, we all know what you really mean by that overly revealing statement. Socialists what to harness (i.e. enslave) productive people (capitalists) and then use the money they extort to buy the support of "the masses". But since your motives are soooo good, that's OK, isn't it?
