Stuff that you won't see in the US.

Cool. Sometimes I wish I lived in Europe. Maybe I could find someone I could have an intelligent conversation with - something I never experienced during the sixteen years I worked in public education here in Seattle.

cahult:
All lands have their own morons. The problem is that in US they have the power and are fortifying their positions. Speaking on behalf of the "good" of Sweden I would like to congratulate you, David, on getting at least some taste of what politics means. I myself is a hater of all that is politics. We have had politicians in the "civilized" world for about 10,000 years and these 10,000 years have been the bloodiest of all since the dawn of mankind 3,000,000 years ago. Corporations have been a part of politics all the way throughout these 10,000 years in one shape or another.

Corporations were a part of politics 10,000 years ago?

Actually, I regard government as a necessary evil - the only alternative to anarchy - which means politicians are a necessary evil as well.

I hate the word politician, though. It's become synonymous with corruption, deceipt, laziness and on and on.

Since I've run for public office, I guess that makes me a politician, though I prefer to call myself an activist. Yet even that word sounds a little weird; a bit pretentious perhaps.

--- Quote from: DavidB ---Ha, if I was elected president, I'd trade places with Hugo Chavez. I'd spend my free time chasing beautiful Venezuelan women and let him wrestle with Republicans and Microsoft. :)

 :) nice one. I wouldn't wish H. Chavez to rule the US, though. You guys don't deserve the communist s.o.b.

I must say I do not agree with you too much, though. Bill Gates is a very greedy businessman. I do not believe he is truly evil, nor is Bush. But I didn't even have time to read the whole thread yet, so I will keep my silence until I get broadband and more time... september perhaps.

adiment:
Now this thread is politics oriented...

I recommend you all to join http://www.heatedebates.com if you want to talk politics. A member here owns it (Laukev7, with the help of stryker)
