Freedom is fading EVERYWHERE, it's not just a California thing. I live in Maryland and I'd say freedom is dead here. In Columbia they have laws governing the number of pets you can have (like in China except w/number of kids), what color your house has to be (which has to be approved by the neighborhood soviet--I mean, council), and laws that you can't have towels hanging on your back porch. Talk about watered-down communism--socialism--in action.

Maybe, you like, need to move out of Maryland?

Au contraire, Freedom is on the march.

I wouldn't call it watered down, I'd call it "In your face, what are you gonna do now lemming?" Socialism.
