I'm waiting for the dictator of Syria to be overthrown by the rebels, as Gadaffi in Libya.
I'm wondering what I'm thinking.
Oh yes - have you noticed the rise in nostalgia groups on Facebook? I've joined one about the nightclub I used to go to - it was an alternative one - and one about living in Wakefield where i'm from.
Disappointingly, the one concerned with Wakefield has people saying many of the things the local group is saying. Perhaps I should post this as a thread. Hmm. that must be what I'm thinking.

I'm trying to find a fault with Frederic here.
"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." - Frédéric Bastiat
Can this be true ?

Criminal Fraternity? Frederic reckons that's Everyman - given the chance. And those in charge have the best chance to plunder the rest .

I'm thinking that everything is good just at the moment.

I don't believe that everyone lives with criminal intent but there are those who increasingly do due to the absence of punitive sentencing: a situation brought about by the lawmakers i.e. government and lawyers, whereby it follows that the more lawbreakers who are brought before the courts, the greater the fees accruing to solicitors and barristers as well as increased salaries to the judiciary who are paid from the public purse. The introduction of legal aid was a goldmine to the legal profession until even that old legal eagle Tony Blair was forced to peg the annual sum at £2 billion pounds and it has been further reduced this year; since when, there has been a great gnashing of teeth and a wailing about justice being restrained. The last thing that lawyers are interested in is justice, because it would effectively reduce their financial well-being.
