<Libertarians go around exclaiming, "Give me freedom or give me death", > Not so fast there!! I do NOT want death, so put your involuntary euthanasia gun away. I'm quite happy with as much freedom as I can get. There's no need for that death talk. I think it's New Hampshire which says "Live free or die". Perhaps I should steer clear of there if too many gun nuts are on the loose hunting Libertarians. New Hampshire is splendid in autumn. I can see it again via webcams I suppose, from a safe distance. Actually, Libertarians seem more inclined to life than most. It's the Islamic jihad and patriotic fanatics and ideological maniacs who like to go down with the ship. Islam or die! Dying for one's country is always popular [especially the leaders getting OTHER people to die for the beloved motherland/fatherland - hmmm, how come it's one or the other but not usually "mother and father land"? <Has it every occurred to you that there is far more competition in such things than you imagine? > No it hasn't. There seems to be about as much competition as I am aware of. Have you found some competition hiding somewhere that I haven't heard of? Where is it? What is it? The fact that there are many countries with their own silly currencies doesn't make any of them any good. And it doesn't make the best of them good. The best is just less bad than the others. Which is hardly a compliment. One should compare things with what's possible, not what's really bad, or just nasty, or possibly as good as generally tolerable. BTW, it's rude to tell people they "blather on". There's no need to be rude. Mqurice
