The government is supposed to be neither our benefactor nor an
impediment to progress, although in practice, it is both. I submit that it is your brand of ambiguity toward the proper role of our government that has led to our current situation. Power will always fill a vacuum, and as long as there are citizens who think "Oh, well, it would be nice if the governent would fill in the blank for us", we will be ever-more restricted. I fear this type of insidious encroachment on our freedoms far more than any overt moves by Homeland Security. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I do believe you have put your finger on what is so bitterly dividing our nation today. Not only can't we agree on the solutions, we can't even agree on the problems. :-( -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Not only can't we agree on the solutions, we can't
even agree on the problems. Wiser words were never spoken. If we can't define the problem, no solution will work. Jose -- Humans are pack animals.

than any overt moves by Homeland Security. Just because it is overt doesn't mean that it is harmless. True, but at least I can fight what I can see. Most of what has happened to destroy freedom in America has occurred bit by bit, incrementally, over a fairly long period of time -- and (worst of all) has been done by people who think they are helping. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
