"The degree of freedom possessed by those having the least power and influence is the true measure of freedom in a nation.
"The powerful, having a false sense of freedom through the exercise of power over others, can too easily and inadvertently give up a free nation's foundation of freedom and thus almost unknowingly give up their own basis of power."~ John V. Westberg, quoted in The Freeman, Jan. 1995

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
