How much can centralized control provide?<BR/><BR/>And it turns out: very little.<BR/><BR/>And then you look at the Articles of Confederation and ask, "Well, how about NO centralized control?" And you see where that fails, too.<BR/><BR/>I'm fond of extremes, but I'm not emotionally attached to them, politics or exercise. :-)blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05430444326700437630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268985416439660021.post-14117961832446217882008-09-09T15:56:00.000-07:002008-09-09T15:56:00.000-07:00Wow, you're not nearly as rabid as you were on tha...Wow, you're not nearly as rabid as you were on that last treadmill post.<BR/><BR/>: )knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231876226573540476noreply@blogger.com
