I think the only thing that may wake this country up ... |

...is a military draft. Sad, but I think things will only degrade further and we need a negative shock to bring people to their senses and realize whats happening!

Social security privatization is awful, but has a built in hook - offering cash.

The fascists are gaining strength. In this "1984" world we live in, all Bush has to do is name it the "Defense of the Homeland Act" and a majority will think it's a good idea.

One part of me says we need to do it but the other part says no. I don't believe in this Iraq war and I don't want to see anyone have to go fight it. Having said that, if the draft only took Busy lovers, that would be all right with me!
