A few words from the man that I admire the most, Ted Turner. ...For democracy to work, you have to educate your citizens, and try to make the right decisions. We have to be good to our environment, control population, we have to make the right decisions. There is way too much inequity in the world. Q. Is this why you started the United Nations Foundation? Yes. I wanted to try and encourage people who had huge amounts of wealth to recycle to make a more equitable world. We can't have just a few people in the United States with billions of dollars of wealth, and billions of people in the rest of the world with nothing at all. This is not a safe situation at all. We also need to use new technology and move away from fossil fuels. We have to do a lot of things in a real big hurry. But we can do it! We have been to the moon; we've invented the television satellite and the microchip. We have done a lot of things right. And it's important that we as journalists need to be sure to emphasize the important stories about what the future holds for us and try to guide humanity and economic systems in the proper way so we can all enjoy prosperity and live a long life...

FT, That's true. I don't remember the details though. Also the Nixon years were bad for our rights. It finally got to the point that if protester's wouldn't shut up they were shot. But go back further to the formation of the unions. Pro-union people were murdered a lot in business's attempt to stop them from organizing. There is certainly a evolution in government towards more rights now than we ever have had. Bu the PC movement that has sprung up and the NWO have put that all at risk again. Bob
