Thread Name: BS: Left Hypocricy
Subject: RE: BS: Left Hypocricy
"Hypocrisy" is everywhere, on the Left and on the Right.

Some years ago it came out that the Catholic Church was a major shareholder in the drug company that produced most of Italy's birth control pills! To me, THAT'S hyprocrisy!

I disagree, Ake. I went to private schools, from grade school through college. We had little money; I suspect that the local parish paid my way (and my siblings' ways) through grade school. I washed dishes and cleaned floors in high school to pay my tuition, in college I worked in the library, took out loans, and sold myself to the Army reserves (and had my college education interupted when the unit was activated for Vietnam). If someone, Socialist or rapid capitalist, wants their children to go to private schools AND the cost can be worked out, why shouldn't they?

I'm not a socialist, politically or otherwise. You might call me an individualist if you must label me anything at all.
