My use of the phrase, "no man is an island", was based on having seen it used by people on the right side of the spectrum, usually in reference to advocating behavior-control laws.

It's also been my observation that - okay, SOME - conservatives look at Americans as unruly children, much in the same way liberals do. The difference is how each side wants to make them conform to their standards. For instance, there's a guy over on Hannity's forums that thinks we can arrest our way back to an Ozzie & Harriet kind of America, and he can't be the only one.

And, for the record: I'm on the knife's edge of being 41 years of age, and my campaign is focused mostly on eminent domain and forfeiture abuse, reforming family services to cut down on frivolous "revenge" charges (usually made by angry ex-spouses), and replacing the tax structure with the national retail sales tax.

What you read here, doesn't make it out on the campaign trail, unless I meet a kindred spirit along the way.

Thanks for your reply. Society requires compromises. Those of us on the left think we have a responsibility to share with our neighbors in need and those on the right think those in need should pick up and work it out. Somewhere in between we manage to get along. We have laws to make life a touch easier. Some behaviors don't make life easier. Society needs rules to postpone chaos. Some of the rules we make are unfair and some are over used and abused. The exceptions are always newsworthy, but I just can't think of any right now.

Sorry, I don't understand and I realize I'm too tired to think straight.
