| 57. Andrew Ladhe has written the best parting shot....... |
|
although I did not make the green he has-I have reached the same conclusions as he has, in all subjects.
I would love to get the George Soros chair in Philosophy at any University and I do think I can hold my own. What kind of Democracy do we really have? The reason why I even bother to ask is that I recently had a conversation with my latest young stock broker trainee (the ones they send to sell me new products-even though I outperform them). Some how we got on the subject of torture and she naively said she thought it was ok in cases of emergency (the GOP meme). After I regained my colour-I went ballistic. Having a background in a PSYOP unit and working with the interrogators-I felt like I have some credibility in this area. By the time I was finished-I could tell had ripped off her assumptions like a scabbed band aid. I like her very much and she has respect for me. I know she will go off and think about this- as I hope she will. She is a digger as they say.
But what worries me is that Bush and Cheney have planted this ugly seed and they are going unpunished. This Democracy has lost it's humanity and has failed if our young people think this is ok. The soil for this Democracy has been polluted by corporations and we need to start subjecting corporations to human consequences up to and including death for crimes against humanity.
