I could've care less about Biden. We have enough here to worry about. But Biden is now LESS POPULAR than Trump was at his lowest point. Trump was thrown out because of his unpopularity. The fools who did it - by fair means or foul - had the luxury of a fresh start. What have they got now? A VP they don't like either, who is just as useless as Biden in her own way. Serve them right.

Dear David,

«I hope for the day when we will be able achieve the second version of anarchy in all places.»

AMEN!

---

Dear Foxy,

«Political institutions are the organisations in a
government that create, enforce and apply laws.
They often mediate conflict...»

Oh, click here to see how they mediate conflicts: http://fablesofaesop.com/litigious-cats.html

«Political instituions set the rules in which an
orderly society obeys and ultimately decides and
administers the laws for those that do not obey
thus hopefully preventing chaos and disorder.»

Yes, obey AND live in fear.
Is that a life worth living?

Those who like to live in a given orderly society may be happy,
but those who either do not want to live in an orderly society at all OR would like to live in a different one that better shares their values, they suffer helplessly.

Causing other people to suffer helplessly is violence.
When you promote the state as it currently exists, you promote violence.

Issy, there is a whole bunch of unemployed royals in England. Plus Andy who is actually unemployable, don't mention young chicks, he's a bit dirty on em at the moment. Charlie has been living off the the royal dole for 60 years. I don't know what Eddie does, got sacked from Burger King about 30 years ago. Harry smokes pot, Willie's hair fell out. Phil well Phil's gone. I think Anne is running in the third at Newmarket on Saturday. Camilla is a scratching from the same race.

Yuyutsu,

"Watch your thoughts for they become words.
Watch your words for they become actions.
Watch your actions for they become habits.
Watch your habits for they become character."

Wise words from Margaret Thatcher.

She also said:

"There is little hope for democracy if the hearts
of men and women in democratic societies cannot be
touched by a call to something greater than themselves."

Something to think about.

Or put another way:

"The whole problem with the world is that
fools and fanatics are always so certain of
themselves and wise people so full of doubts."
( Bertrand Russell).

That's all folks.

Dear Foxy,

Margaret Thatcher was correct (on these two accounts).

Those of us whose heart is touched by a call to something greater, are blessed. Others will need to await their turn.

The question being, must this "something greater" be some society that forces itself and its values on everyone around regardless whether they like it or not, only because they happen to live in some stretch of land?

By God's Grace, I should find greater things than that to touch my heart.

Regarding Bertrand Russell, the poor guy assumes that there is a problem with the whole world. Does he blame the Creator for doing a bad job?

On benevolent anarchy, it works well until someone organizes a power group and takes over.
