Yeah, and not in a Nazi salute, either, let's emphasize! :-) I have pretty much rejected all the existing political "isms" of our time, though I am still more or less a democratic socialist at heart.

But I really see it as a spiritual issue, in the final analysis. Treat everyone around you with the same consideration, kindness, and generosity as you would wish to receive from them...And don't inflict upon them what you would not want inflicted upon you.

Those are sane rules on which to build a society, a family, or a relationship.

And do what Captain Bligh did on his little boat after the mutineers put them to sea...share the food in EQUAL lots. (I guess he had learned a lesson of sorts by that time...or maybe he wasn't as bad in the first place as the movies have depicted him.)
