Yogi, >>WE ARE the "evil empire"...<< >Reluctantly, I tend to agree with you here< There's so much to love about this country it's a shame that a small percentage of the people have undue influence over the system (especially financial) and use it for their own personal gain. Unfortunatley that means it comes at the expense of the majority who IMHO are not informed enough to get really pissed and change things. The media is of little help, and in fact, I would argue is often used as a tool to advance the existing agendas. When I was 18 I considered my liberal. I slowly became more conservative as time passed and I accumulated life experience. Now (at 41) I consider myself a libertarian and dislike much of what everyone else takes for granted as good. I'm a slow learner. Wayne
