Unless you're rich... then they give you a tax break and screw
everyone else.

Ah grasshopper... one does not need to put a New Yorker in a box with
a label unless one wants to receive it once a week.

Have you read _Honta Yo_? It's one of the best books I've ever read....

It was a book written in tandem about the Lakota...the author wrote the
basic story, then went to the Lakota and had it translated into their
language and then went back and translated that into English so that it
would be truly representative of their history. It is a great book. If you
are interested in the history of the Sioux nation, it is probably one of the
best.

Yes, that is really a great book. I read it as a teenager and was bowled
over...

They've got it... although fewer (12) than I would have thought. I may
pick up a copy myself.

One of the changes in the U.S. that I like the least is the fading of
pioneer spirit & values... after 3 generations raised by TV and having
consumer culture rammed down our throats... for that matter who even
reads books any more?
