< I don't agree with Dean at all, and don't agree with Bush on a lot of issues. So I'm stuck.> As you look around yourself and at your own life today, you must see by now that you have only the partial "freedom" of the Serf. You have long since lost the right of property in the result of all your own efforts - through the imposition of the income tax. What property you do "own" is regulated by others, and always taxed. This amounts to being forced to pay an annual rent upon property which you have bought and paid for. I say this because around the year 1900, it was regarded as an inescapable truism across the West that the individual literally owned his or her own private physical person. Laissez faire, or leave us alone, was the accepted center of private life. The combined political and economic center principle here was the inviolability of PRIVATE PROPERTY. I understand your dilemna. I don't agree with Bush at all and don't agree with Dean on alot of issues..... The first post "cold war" election in the western world was held in Canada in late 1993. The Conservative Party was the long-governing party and went into the election with 157 seats. They emerged from it with TWO. President Bush deserves the same fate next year.
