Actually, this is happening with many products, though not to defeat nanny state regulation, but to maintain profitability in the face of inflation. The thing is, the size goes down but the retail price doesn't. I wonder how many people even check the weight on the label of the everyday...

As should bailing out risk takers who lose.

Read these books by Mark Levin. It's all there. "Liberty and Tyranny" "Ameritopia"

It has yet to be determined how "middle of the road" healthcare will be, and what your perspective of that middle is. When the real costs begin to materialize, we'll see how much of an individual's life style he or she will be willing to change to meet standards that will need to be...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Man, you must not read the entire articles you link to. It states in the article that both parties have moved toward the extremes. Did you ever consider that a move further right by one party might be a...

Even better, the Baretta Tomcat .32 has a pop up barrel allowing a round to be chambered with no slide action.

Thomas Sowell is one of my favorites. I recently purchased his revised "Intellectuals and Society". He makes a lot of sense on a lot of issues.

No, I'm not. You've said nothing in your posts to cause me to reach that conclusion. You're looking at it from a property rights perspective. I believe property rights are under assault, but I don't believe the type of law we are talking about would further that assault.

To be honest, I haven't given a great deal of thought to this issue. After I left the Nav I started a music business. I operated a band for 10 years. Over half of the musicians I sub-contracted were black. For 8 years, I had a Latino vocalist up front. We were welcomed in virtually every...

Primarily the assualt on gun ownership every time a criminal uses a gun. Or we could get into the multitude of gov regulation like my neighbor had to deal with putting in a swimming pool, all because someone somewhere drowned, and on and on and on.

I don't hold that view.

Actually, I'll just quote it for you. Out of the blue: Friend: Man, I hate those fucking tea party assholes. Me: I don't necessarily disagree with everything they believe in. Friend: Oh man! That makes you a racist, nazi, and extremist, too.

I believe he reacted the way he did because he believes as you do in your quote above. I don't agree with that assessment, but that is for another discussion. I agree with the views they hold regarding government overreach in many areas of our lives. I believe the following might be a few...

Care to elaborate? Better yet, go fuck yourself.

I agree with your definition of the middle, but I stand by my previous posts that the claim of the middle is used as a weapon to diminish or even ridicule political opponents. Many on the right believe that their side gives up more than they gain routinely in the compromise game. I expect...

Actually, I’m quite relaxed, but thanks for your concern. [/B]It absolutely matters regarding a dictator (or politicians in general, for that matter). He might use the argument that he is in the middle to paint his opponents as the extremists. As far as knowing where the middle is: If you...

The same might be said about the current left. In a few of the prior posts, some of the great tyrants of the last century were mentioned. Did they consider themselves extremists? I would wager many didn't. Maybe those who died at their hands considered themselves to be in the middle...

That's exactly my point. Where does the true middle lie, if there is such a thing? Isn't it always about perspective?
