Mike -

Well said, especially about the perpetuation of life's discomforts as liberal causes! It seems that we in the USA today are trying to legislate and regulate all the "danger" out of life in every area. It's a pet peeve with me.

Life, to be interesting, has to have an element of uncertainty and (yes) danger to it to be worth living. More regulation means less freedom of choice, which bleeds from "acceptable" causes to our daily lives.

Keep up the posts, my friend - you're not alone in your corner!
