the failed states bothers us greatly.
somalia, yemen, libya, etc. etc.
how do we best advance our most enlightened viewpoints, without killing every lasting soul that stands in our way?
i, for one, wants to see some gd ldrshp in this country, if we have one anymore.
without a country, where would we be, exactly? anyone know for sure?

It was fun. humans finally beginning to talk, experience, and express humans alive on the earth. can it happen in our time, or should it be left up to our children and Grands? at some point, the humans who exist on this earth have to take control of the conditions, and situation. we've gotta move forward. say what?

Maybe the way forward is less, not more government control. Did you ever think of that?

Did you ever think of that? i've always thought of less gov't control. but in my experience they will lock you up and throw away the key if you don't follow their directives. to be free on this earth, what could that possibly mean? no freedom under the war criminals johnson, mcnamara, and westmoreland. you're cannon fodder to the support the existing political quo. why don't people work for themselves in an organized trading structure?

Or are you advocating the Soviet style 5 year plan system? forgive me if i'm wrong, but i don't think capitalism was the system that managed to get my arse drafted to fight the asians because johnson, et al called for a response. i'm not going to relive that lack of ldrshp in our country's history. now adays, it's becoming a global discussion, and it's happening rather quickly. global warming? it's not happening in my neighborhood, but there's an international conference getting ready to convene. who can give us insights into the "new" story that is beginning to unfold for us to follow?

Gus, you need to give up your draft argument.
We've gone to an all volunteer military, and haven't drafted a single person since June, 1973. That was 42 years ago, time to accept that we as a society have moved past your favorite gripe.
As for the global farce conference, Obama will try to enter into a new agreement crippling our industrial capabilities and declare it was not a treaty, and attempt to circumvent the Senate.

Don't think so Gus. But it's better than it used to be hundreds or thousands of years ago. Be patient.

Can it be run in our time for the benefit of all? Not a chance. There are too many in power who will only benefit themselves. They want power and money and nothing can get in their way and survive.
