There's a progression. This is seminal work - a work very much in progress. I don't expect applause, but SOME forebearance. You've given me cause to have expectations of you.

These threads are all on the same subject and they are all on the same theme, but there's a refinement going on which is my actual purpose here. Creating into a void is something only God can do - the rest of us need an echo, the sound of bouncing. Like blind bats, we use the echo to locate where we need to go next. This need - so rarely attended to properly in this waste land - is why I cuss lames out all the time for being such ***. Well, also general orneriness.

If you think "Capitalism is not Free Enterprise" and "Capitalism is Government Interference in the Free Market" are the same thread, look again. Every thread I have started on this subject reflects a better grip on the material - an updated cut on the thing. Hell, when I STARTED, my argument was that capitalism is a necessary evil - just needful of better regulation. Now, I'm advocating that we outlaw it - that it should not be allowed to exist.

I am working without a net here, into zero agreement. You might as well be saying to a man hacking his next 80 feet of jungle on the way to his destination, "This is the same thing you did yesterday" - and mean it as a negative.

No, I am not being Will Franklin. I'm being Cannonpointer.
