ppl are scared of their own incompetence. the idea of competition above their means is frightening. I think secretly they'd just like it all to stop. like the communists promise.

Ha!
I enjoy it when you jump on your high horse and ride around here. Of course, you seem to never have any suggestions on how to solve your perceived problems in this world.

And BTW, if you post a paragraph or two that gives some insight into what you're b*tching about, more people might take the time to follow the links you posts if they thought it might interest them.

Eliminate the sugar subsidy and tariffs against sugar imports. You got a problem with those ideas? If so, what?

Point taken.
