Or Italy, or France, or Spain, or Sweden, or anywhere else Tom Send a noteboard - 18/02/2015 03:42:07 PM

Socialism stifles all enterprise and progress, and eventually you run out of other people's money to steal (cf. Greece, France, Sweden).

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
