here's what I expect: a) politicians to be generally foolish b)
do stupid things c) try to keep the government stable enough so
they'll have jobs tomorrow d) because I'm not of recruitment age
nor living by big cities I don't think much about it e) I don't
expect that to change f) religion is rarely the reason, just the
public justification g) this is as true for anything you've
heard bush say and anything coming out of the middle east or
most places h) money is involved somewhere i) it's not my money
(directly) etc etc. -- death + taxes are universals unless
you're uber rich. Well taxes, but they're working on death.
Wherever I live, there'd be some. How much? Depends. It's just a
part of being a grownup in any era in human history smile
emoticon politicians get their jobs to play with other people's
money. Ok then, here ya go. Waste it. That's what they always
do. -- Well, there's always ways to pay less (and perhaps none)
I suspect in many countries. I don't overly stress. I put my
cleverness together to lower it but not so much to stress over
it either. I figure I don't have militia knocking at my door
looking for a place to sleep. My streets are paved. I'd likely
have been a "good citizen" in any era with most governships. --
