So flats, what is your take on the market here? Surely you realize how pointless our political discourse has become. For example, I make a personal statement to you in which I took great care to discuss the process rather than the purely ephemeral content of contemporary politics. And you would rather respond to some incendiary barb? Politics should be a debate that tries to answer the question, "Cui bono?"... but where in contemporary politics is there an adult discussion of tradeoffs? As Nietzsche said, "Only when the State withers away will I cease to be superfluous." Perhaps my time will come, perhaps not. I'm more concerned about the markets right now.
