More point-missing on demand, here: just because one decries the results of the US invasion does not mean that Saddam was good: it's pretty clear that few Iraqis supported him, but that doesn't illegitimate their displeasure with the occupying forces. Let's put it this way: you, Greg, have often expressed your displeasure with government (in general): that certainly would not make you happy if some Libertarian army were occupying the country. Further: no one's questioning that people have died; I've argued all along that the US (as usual) acts as if it's grossly oversimplifying the complexity of the post-battle situation, and tragedies like this one exemplify the failings of that posture. As to the "Syrians and the Iranians": interesting how someone who's vocally opposed the claims of government to say anything about people's lives nevertheless appears to favor someone *else's* government coming in and running things for people who didn't ask for it. ..Jeff J e f f r e y N o r m a n The Architectural Dance Society www.uwm.edu/~jenor/ADS.html :: we make everything you need, and you need everything we make np: Elliott Smith _Roman Candle_ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 17:13:16 +0100 (BST) From: crowbar.joe@btopenworld.com Subject: Reap I'm in New Orleans at the moment, and Earl King's funeral is tomorrow.

Sadly - although we're nowhere near as bad - the US is heading in that direction. We still, of course, have the most powerful military in the world...but economically, we're losing ground, socially we're not treading but stomping vigorously on the thin ice of our ever-increasing gap between the rich and the poor, and our regard in the rest of the world is lower than ever. Our states and cities are starved for funds; despite our massive wealth we have hundreds of thousands of citizens living in poverty (more than statistics say, since the official poverty line has merely risen with inflation since its institution in the sixties and takes no account of costs of essential goods that have risen more quickly than general inflation). The mandated minimum wage has been stagnant for more than a decade, and at any rate isn't enough to support a person, much less a family. Real wages for all but the top 30% of the population have been in a steady decline since the 1970s, and while we've just blown up billions of dollars, Bush wants yet another tax cut to funnel more money to the people who least need it. And of course, tax cuts are politically almost impossible to undo - the tendency is to hide them in increased fees, new sales taxes, and other far more regressive instruments that only increase unfairness. The political powers-that-be are ever more out of touch with most people, to the extent that several folks in Congress strike many as positively certifiable. Our idea of effective action is a diktat decreeing that henceforth, french fries in the Congressional lunch room shall be called "freedom fries." And that's not even mentioning the proposed DSEA or Patriot Act II, which treats the Constitution rather like Jason treated his victims in the _Friday the 13th_ series (or was that _Halloween_? whatever...). ..Jeff J e f f r e y N o r m a n The Architectural Dance Society www.uwm.edu/~jenor/ADS.html :: "am I being self-referential?" ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 13:51:24 +0000 (GMT) From: brian@lazerlove5.com Subject: RH Rarities discs Fegs, I just got my 2 discs (see below) of RH rarities that Marc Holden nicely compiled.
