I wish that I knew enough about it to carry on a meaningful conversation. Its depressing to be as old as I am and be the dumbest one around. Somehow, your words don't ring true. Not that I think you're lying, I just feel that your youth is clouding your viewpoint. Every young person is a doom sayer. :sad:
The best things in life, aren't things.

I'm a realist :razz: I just put terms to it and it becomes educated babble.
Ultimately I understand that optimism/cynicism is usually a moot point
in the game of life. Day to day issues of paying bills, debts, dealing
with girl troubles, pissing off a friend and being in a quandry over it
is reality.
Ironically, my life and my associations with the older and wiser
peoples of my locale has lead me to take the realist view on life. It's
just being a youth, and the freedom of the interner put with it, that lets
me express my perception of why we live like we do.

Fascism isn't Nazism.
I'd say the United States, and a s**tload of other countries sail close
to the wind of fascism. Bearing in mind fascism is based on the fasces,
the Roman Empire and its symbol of power.
All empires at their peak are ultimately fascist - how else do you create an empire? :wink:
