I did not realize this. I have a friend who is living on Sark at this very moment, and he never mentioned it.

to ensure that the island's laws complied with European conventions.

This is the final end of monarchy and aristocracy in Great Britain, except as a social function.

Sounds like allowing only landowners to vote has worked pretty darned well! Sark hasn’t started any wars, hasn’t taken anyone over, hasn’t had any domestic problems worthy of note. Don’t know how their economy is working, but it surely can’t be worse than ours. Tall me again why our system is superior?

Dang meddling immigrants!

They settled in Sark to dodge taxes, and then they want to bring to bear all the oppressive machinery of the liberal tyrants they fled.

Just like the doggone Californians moving to Arizona and Nevada.

Serfs in medieval Europe paid about 33% of their crop to the land owner. Who would have guess they had it easy compared to the average middle class American who is at about 50% in taxes...

OK, I give up - WTH is “Sark?”

[Candor7]

It is better to be a feoffor or a feoffee in a feifdom, than the subject of a socialist dictator like Obama, who now is attempting a coup on America, from the non constitutional office of the so called "President Elect."

Why is Obama still in campaign mode?

Something to do with where he was born perhaps? A feudal vestige of our constitution? LOL?

Consider yourself enfeoffed.

Effing Great isn't it?
