Leaving Florence SC <yaaaaay>
Dear EvMick and other fellow Extropians:
I'm familiar with "Vote Scam" and numerous other books critical of one
aspect of government or another. When push comes to shove however, the
system - with all its flaws - usually works until ignorant ideologues with
nothing better to do tear it down.
It would be nice if we spent more time trying to improve the system
instead of just trying to beat it to death.
