Write her a nice poem and she will be clay in your hands again. Jim

Christine: No American owes the State a living either. Kennedy was wrong when he said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." 1. Our country should only protect our rights, our freedom from invaders or overseas threats, and protect us from the government itself. 2. No person should do anything for the country EXCEPT on a completely voluntary basis. Good businessmen would fight government infringement of property rights, government coercion, government arm-twisting, and government intrusion into free enterprise. A good government would recognize that no employee is forced to take any type of job or stay with any employer one day longer than they care to. A good government would leave its citizens alone to run their own affairs without threats, intimidations, fines and the shadow of jailtime for those that do not obey big brother's pronouncements. A good government would stop the practice of robbing people of their wealth and then using that wealth against targeted people. FT
