Whew! When you guys go off topic, there is no fooling around.

I for one, am glad that Saddam H. did not have, or use any nukes or chemical weapons. There could mave been a lot more causalties. The best of luck to anyone who has to go to Iraq.

What do you think about the idea that corporations are not compatible with democracy?

Besides Mike's comments, only millionaires can get elected to our Congress. Mostly, I would bet that they did not do anything fundamentally productive to get this money. I am not sure that they have the faintest idea what it is like to live in this country. New laws seem to be hand outs to companies, and we get tossed a bone. In politics ( the democractic stuff) money equals speach. So those with lots of money talk real loud.

To take an easy example ( there are plenty, from the petty to the S&L bailout) The execs at Enron ripped of thousands of people in CA. Then even when they knew that their stock was tanking, they told their employees to keep buying it, which caused the workers a lot of trouble. How come those rich guys aren't in jail ? A lot of the things that they did were legal! Something is not right.

Systems work like they are designed to - who actually gets to do the designing ? Everybody or just a few ?

Here, the legislature is trying to take away township control of CAFO siting. These are not places where some guy wants to make a living with a few hundred cows. Isn't it something like 5 companies already own/contract 75% of the hogs in the whole country ? Who do these laws benifit ? The small dairy of hog producer ? Their neighbors ? I'm thinking not. Everybody or the few ?

I just came across a new shortwave station WBZQ 7415. They have something to offend everyone.

What's an RSP ?
