ORIGINAL: LadyEllen Still fighting a class war like the Tories m'dear? The left is determined to keep people poor so theyll get votes and the right is equally determined to keep their sort rich so they can perpetuate their power. Both sides are determined to maintain outward appearances that match their allegiances - this is where the confusion in yourself and PS53 (and the problem landlord and neighbour and the locals here) arises in my owning a Jag - it befuddles doesnt it? It unnerves, its incongruous, its just wrong in that old socio-economic model? Its a threat to that order of things in which left and right thrive? Its all rather gratifying. That model has passed. Its redundant. Change is in the air that is more than the catchphrases of left and right that pretend to change but actually and desperately seek to revivify the dying model on which left and right rely; coincidentally catchphrases coined in the stark recognition of the end of that model. Scratch the red and blue off the surface of the electorate, and one finds a glorious orange layer beneath, going all the way to the core. E I quote you in full for one reason: it's clear that you simply cannot engage in debate. You've summed up neither my nor PS's viewpoint. And your arguments have no intrinsic worth. I mean, if the left are determined to keep people poor and the right to maintain privilege, they'd be identical, not opposed. Must do better. As for the old Jag, I doubt very much that it's really the source of much real envy in 2008. Perhaps they don't like it because it's a heavy polluter. Maybe it's you they don't like and could give a fuck about your motor. Have you tried just having a chat with them, instead of simply chucking their bins in the street?
