  • tynan - you talk about our civil liberties being oppressed by the powers that be and our privacy being invaded by our big brother society but I don't really buy it. I'd say, as a people, we have never been freer than we are now. Never before has so much opportunity been available to so many different people regardless of background, race or class, universities have opened their doors to anyone. Our technology based society we're living in has broken down so many boundaries. The internet has given us unprecedented freedom was only a dream to so many not so long ago, the information super highway available to all with a modem and a PC. Cheap flights + the European Union has allowed unrestricted movement to anyone with enough money for a plane ticket. Most people in the world only dream of the freedom we have.

    Count up all the pros of our present society and compare them with the cons you're talking about.

    I'll think you'll find more pros.

    facist!
