Surly Curmudgeon

   The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire. The former are idealists acting from highest motives for the greatest good of the greatest number. The latter are surly curmudgeons, suspicious and lacking in altruism. But they are more comfortable neighbors than the other sort.
-- Robert A. Heinlein

    Thought for the Day

    Government programs are like cable TV. You get a free install, all kinds of crazy channels including premium ones, for a low monthly rate... that expires in 6 months, reverting to the normal price for the duration of your contract.

    That's when you discover that, unlike cable TV, you can't call them up and cancel the service.
