I find it quite bizarre that when the economy is good, governments can do what they like, and nobody complains (all too busy shopping and watching American Idol). Invade Iraq, fine...curb civil liberties in the name of 'the War on Terror', fine...let banks lend money they don't have, fine... Then it all goes wrong, and everybody is as 'mad as hell' and wants their needs addressed right away...which will never happen in a society where wealth is divided in such as way as to ensure the rich are always rich, and the poor get what's left over. No matter how angry anybody gets, hospitals will close, welfare queues will get longer, the wages of the low-paid will get lower...that's capitalism for you! Dan
