Dave I interpreted your remarks as sarcasm because they were too preposterous to be anything else.

1. Boeing DID break labour laws so were quite rightly brought to justice. FYI these laws were brought out to protect workers from the draconian measures some employers would impose.

2. The National Socialist Movement in Germany are a bunch of extreme right wing, anti semitic, neo-Nazis and are about as far removed from socialists and socialism as you can possibly get.

3. Liars...well ALL politicians are liars...goes with the territory but historically the biggest liars have been from the conservative persuasion.

4. Wealth redistribution is wrong.....well take a look at the income of the top earners in this world against the bottom...then argue the justice of the huge difference.....you cannot either ethically or morally.

5. Protestors retreating to gay bars....well they have to go somewhere. That said in my experience the most likely candidates to frequent gay bars are the middle and upper classes. Do not forget I have been in the music industry for over 40 years....I have come across many gays and sexual deviants...most are right wing politicians or middle to upper class from a public school background.

6. Liberal press...well from what I have read the American press is anything but liberal....they are pretty right wing IMO.

7. Enjoying freedom.....well from what I have seen and heard of your country freedom is only applicable to those who can afford it and it does not come cheap.

The rich in this world are rubbing their hands with glee when some people support them because they cannot see the wood for the trees. Excuse the pun.
