No further effort required. <br /><br />I love the Yiddish expression, "Tell a fool to close a window and he'll close them all over town." So with socialism.

As I read in a book sometime ago, beware of zealots of any stripe. The left are zealots and do Olympic gold medal worthy mental gymnastics to make reality fit their preconceived notions. Until they are ready to deal in reality there can be no conversation. Atlas Shrugged illustrated this perfectly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
