My point is the government should not have an "interest". In a true
democracy, only the people have interests, which the goverment's job
is to work for. Nothing else. Once they start having "interests" it
is time to get rid of them.


And my point is that the only "interest" that the government has is get
re-elected. Difficult when you are creating a scare story that, should
it work, inevitable results in a perceived drop in the standard of
living.

As Adolph Hitler pointed out (paraphrased) "tell them their
children are in danger, and they'll put up with pretty-much
anything."

Say what you like about agw, it certainly isn't part of some huge
international government conspiracy.

Not so much a conspiracy as a contageous disease - like Xianity.
