Oh wise and learned one..Why is it that you are so insecure that you have to question my ability to reason just because of my age? I'm guessing you were unhappy with your childhood?'ll just amuse myself by observing from now on.

My, aren't we sensitive. First the threat to move to Sweden if the Hipbase anti-Christ is elected, then the threat to stop posting because someone didn't agree with your wonderful theories. Since you've questioned the happiness of my childhood, let me make an inference about yours: only child perhaps? Somebody sure doesn't like it when he doesn't get his way. Perhaps you should start a blesser blog where only you can post, and then you can post to congratulate youself on the intelligence of your posts. I'm sure it would be a big hit.

Uh, why would I care if you end up working for the federal government? Really, why would I? Do you honestly think anything you could do at that level would impact me? My, don't we think we are important.

Those are all wonderful passages you've cut and paste. Really, they are. And, based on what you've posted, it appears that I was wrong in assuming that a socialist political economy automatically equates to the existence of unions. It appears that in your Swedish Utopia, the entire workforce is unionized by the government, what with controlling wage and income disparities. Sorry for painting it all with the same brush, but all artificial wage controls - be it from the gov't or from unions - they all smell the same to me.
