This is kind of like at boarding school, everyone's still talking after "lights out."

I know that there can be no dark without light, beauty without ugliness (yin and yang). What I meant, though, is that if the Left succeeds in imposing socialism, then our freedom will have been destroyed, as socialism does not allow for freedom.

I view "our side" as being very much like the government of the Shire, that is to say, almost no government. I don't suppose too much of almost no government could become tyranny. I do admit that there are philosophies within the "right" that could evolve into tyranny.

If they impose Socialism, people will tire of it, and the pendulum will swing back... it always has, always does. Then we will remember for awhile why we didn't like it, until we forget, and some begin to think it is a good idea again.

And there are an awful lot of tyrants on the right. Go visit the Religion forum and it won't take you long to find them.

I am on "your side"... I don't feel I need governing, but I think we have gotten too big, too populous and too diverse to ever be able to operate like the Shire, unfortunately.
