Unfortunately, we are heading there. We are past reconciliation, and a divorce is coming; the question is how messy is it going to be. Both "ways" are feasible, albeit with some adjustments. For myself, I would like to find that intangible "third way". Our wives are always much smarter, or at least its good politics to state it, though the evidence is not always consistent! I am sort of Nietzsche neutral; I may be a heathen to say this, but sometimes I wonder if he was the sharpest pencil in the box, ...I should know. Best. Yaaah! thanks so much for reading.

This notion of the Tea Party is scary but interesting how it could go in either direction and is quite dangerous in that both are bad. They are much too Brown Shirty for my tastes or comfort. I do sympathize because you can feel the depressive state of pretty much all peoples in all places, except for the ruling classes. The distance between the masses and the elite is greater than ever before, and could cause rise to the public.. All that aside, your comment about Barbara's character "She’s become a practical philosopher, turning Nietzsche into a how-to book for gold-diggers." is priceless and I am going to share it with my wife, who is much smarter than me and studied philosophy at Berkeley.... I myself happen to like Nietzsche even if I don't agree with his perspective. Thanks David It does appear that we may be headed in this direction if people get mad enough.
