    sad thing is - some don't know fascism from Shinola. As was recently said - if a little bit of order (vs letting true fascist burn down cities) causes people to freak out, they should wear a helmet & shoulder pads.
    Go to a place like china, & start complaining about the government, & when you mysteriously disappear? That's when you can start thinking about what fascism is.


    Yes that trip to Detroit was truly eye opening. That was ¼ a century ago & the auto industry was already decimated. Then there were the intermittent sounds of gunshots, if you were to step outside the Motor City Hotel.

    In 1972 around the time of the "big pay raise," I was an E2 Marine stationed in Kansas City renting in an affordable, "low income", area where I heard gun shots every other day.
