BTW a couple of other things. Firstly you are a legend in your own mind regarding your supposed "decisively" proving me wrong - in those cases you appear to allude to, an impasse was reached and we agreed to disagree either explicitly or de facto. Secondly, I am really tired of all your class warfare BS - by any measure I fit right in with those who, by and large, make up the so called "elites."

You really shouldn't accuse others of being a legend in their own mind, sonny boy.

So in terms of class, I am one of those who might be envied by the less fortunate.

Son, with respect to class...you have none.

. You might note with interest that I have long been striving to remove onorous government regulations regarding micromanagement of the workplace, so called diversity, and other farcical initiatives.

But your first demand is for more and more onerous government regulation and micromanagement, not less--you just prefer some forms of onerous government regulation and micromanagement to others, particularly if you can inflict it on someone other than yourself.

So, any assertion that I am some "class warrior" or somehow personally envious of the so called "wealthy" is complete horse droppings.

Scott McNealy is extremely wealthy. He hates and envies Bill Gates, who is also extremely wealthy.

It boils down to McNealy not liking to lose out, particularly to someone he believes to be an intellectual inferior.

Scott bought and paid for a political prosecution of his class enemy.

You wish to do likewise to your class enemies. Perhaps you are annoyed that people who you believe to be intellectually or socially inferior is out-competing you in the marketplace. But it comes out as class warfare rhetoric.

Where do you get that my first demand is for more and more onerous regs? Just because I happen to promote some focussed and narrow tightening regarding trade with the Communists? Look at the '64 platform on that topic. Other than that one area, I say, let the market decide. Oh, and while we're at it, let's nuke the notion that public servants (including those working in government schools) can either organize into unions or go on strike - both should be crushed. Abolish the Dept of Education as well. Abolish the EPA and let the states regulate all that. Also, any tax payer aid to the World Bank, IMF and the UN must be stopped. OPIC is racketeering and ought to be thusly prosecuted. All of this is strictly Burkian. By the way, what are your thoughts about Burke's philosophy?

As for your calling me son, well, let's not go there, since I don't believe in undertaking competitions regarding degree of grey hair or baldness.

Finally, you are not my class enemy. Not only do I lack class enemies entirely, but also, you are certainly not my enemy in any way, since apparently you are an American and I presume also part of the GOP!
