There are statists, and there are individualists. There are pessimists, and optimists. There are people who look backwards and trust in the West, and those who look forward and trust in The World. Those are the continuums that seem to matter the most right now.br />--a hrefhttp://www.lileks.com/bleats/archive/07/0607/062107.html>Lileks/a>--br />/div>ul>/ul>ul>/ul>div classside>The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.br />--Winston Churchill--br />/div>ul>/ul>ul>/ul>div classside>A man or a nation is not placed upon this earth to do merely what is pleasant and what is profitable.
