I lean more toward regulating behavior than
restricting property ownership

How? Thorazine? Valium? Cocaine?

You can't regulate behavior.

~~ sheesh ~~

I think you're confusing regulate with control. Speed limits are a
'regulation' of behavior. I don't think the horsepower limitation of
500hp
would do ****. Maybe a 35hp limit would be suitable. Whether a hp limit
or
a speed limit, the attempt is to regulate behavior.

Another joke gone wrong.


Admit it..........it was not a joke Tom. At least your reply to my last
post indicates so.

"To err is human". That is why we put erasers on pencils. ;-)


Absoutely - me more so than anybody.

However, I was trying to combine a little humor with social commentary
and it failed miserably.

I need a vacation. :)
