I think in the long run capital intensive enterprises must be based on very solid planning and experience and not doctrine driven conjecture and dreaming about ideals. Before the advent of big government that probably was the way it was. Big government may be needed in time of crisis but to the left the present,ever polluted with the real life faults obvious in the discernable "now", always falls short of what the future can be thought to promise. The left would thus have us ever in a state of crisis, being as we are so remiss by comparison. And in real crisis like that which we face now, its, ehh, cavalier attitude toward painfully evolved moral standards makes it blithe to take full tactical advantage to arrive at that happy state where all fantastically perceived future perfection is pursued only and consummately. And woe to any who doubt; "that cannot be tolerated". A sign in one of Pol Pot's infernal execution chambers said "why you are a chap who dare to thwart the revolution!".'Nuff said: it is the definition of the left.

I had the privilege of working there for 6 months and I'll never forget it. It may be awhile before the present edifice redeems itself as did that now gone plant and all who worked it for so much of their lives.

Ray, when all is said and done, Linda, Jack, and myself just might show up at your doorstep as refugees from Bolshevism one day. I trust you'll give us a hearty Mid-Western welcome (both barrels of it?)!<br /><br />It's been observed that never before (admittedly, I haven't checked) has the whole population been quarantined in response to a disease which primarily threatens a small minority. And, if this is the new normal, will we be hiding under our beds every time flu season starts? Mr. Tegnell is right: this can't go on much longer. Even the Europeans have figured that out.Nicholas Waddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14650770835328089297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8511148187940933062.post-45311955399719742302020-04-10T15:12:46.018-04:002020-04-10T15:12:46.018-04:00LOLOLOL.
