Message	Once Soviet Russia failed, they had about a decade free from absolute government and prospered greatly (with a flat tax no less!) In the last few years, government has been seizing everything it can get its hands on with predictable results--and hey now that's happening here! Every failed banana republic seems to follow omnipotent thug government, and yet the control-happy types keep insisting it'll work if you just implement THEIR version of dictating decisions for people. How about leave us the hell alone to be productive and earn an honest living?
