Hammer: "Hard choice but I would venture the loss of freedom of speech would curtail our freedom the most. It would be good bye to this thread!" Yes, but if you think about it once the government takes 90% of your income, it will be deciding just about everything for you. This would have to occur because the government would control practically all assets and in the process of redistribution of wealth could decide where you live, what you eat, what you wear, how many children you can have, who your doctor is, whether you can own a car, and lord knows what else. If you weigh the loss of these freedoms against the loss of freedom of speech, I am not certain that free speech is more important than economic freedom. Little joe
