Re: Devil's AdvocateRE: Dear RED STATES



Keep in mind the rule of the game. It's the separation between people which give government power. Government doe not care what the separation factor is....as long as it exist. If it exist, it can be exploited. This is the bases of all internal and external government structure since day one.
 
Its the masses separation, us and them, which provides the foundation of a power based. Until people learn to care and think as a whole, we'll be dancing in this circle of constrcution and destruction.
