surely it's irrelevant where you come from if what you do is at odds with that start. when thatcher was hanging about with friedman and pinochet and pursuing ruthless anti-worker policies it didn't matter where she started. and blair with bush and the warmongers - they were both aggressive free-market capitalists with all the violence and inhumanity that implies. if you happen to live in a country that has managed to resist that cruel ideology you are lucky. here, we have to fight against it-again-to preserve what rights we have and to try to win some back. and try to have a laugh while doing it...
