Where do we go ? Alaska ? Chile ? Canada? India ?
I don't think you understand. We aren't trapped in here with them. They're trapped in here with *us*.

Ping to a poignant Steyn piece.
To: Rummyfan
The story of the Western world since 1945 is that, invited to choose between freedom and government “security,” large numbers of people vote to dump freedom every timeAs America's downward spiral intensifies, I find myself less able to tolerate the company of sheep and more difficult to maintain even a facade of civility toward them.
It's like being trapped in a lifeboat with madmen hacking away at the hull.

The future, to me, is beginning to look less and less like "1984" or "Brave New World" or even "Atlas Shrugged" and more and more like Terry Gilliam's "Brazil".
