Oh, yes I just heard the other day, how we are going to replace the leader of the Iraqi mililia that is taking on the terrorist. Seems the people objected to one of Saddam's henchmen being put in authority? Who did they say we were going to replace him with, another of Saddam's former henchmen? Actually, I wanted to make sure that I was being understood in reference to capitalism vs democracy so this may be a little off subject of the thread. Now I am not really into government, history & such so I may be mistaken. In recent years a group had been formed (AARP). The group is basically fixed income retired persons, who have taken this action to fight for their well being & benefits. We know they are fighting against whom? Corporations like medical 7 drug manufactures, hospital corporations & health related suppliers, etc to name a few. What are they going to do? Apply the democratic process, they are pooling their limited resourses to lobby for them because these corperations are investing in lobbying for their corporate interest. Right? Let us see, American corporations go into other countries (like in SA) invest in the growth (productivity) of those nations. Of course these countries are underdeveloped so their governing system comes to realize the finacial rewards of this developement. Soon the people find they are not being given a fair share, the level of poverty is raised which means it cost more to live & their country is being stripped of it's natural resources. They tend to blame those American corporations, they destroy American property & even take American lives. Now those dirty commie bastards move in to capitalize on the situation & the corporation goes to the lobbyist & America sends troops to protect American people & interest. Right, isn't that how it works? Democracy => your lobbyist dollars buys you equal voice in government. How much fairer can you get? Right. Oh the American people send their children to fight & perhaps die for these American corporations to go into these countries & {seize control (buy) their government's rule} fight Comunism (not terrorist). Then we fought communism & now we fight terrorism 
"Terrorist or tyrant, few may come to the Truth that both are poor choice."
