An interesting and thought-provoking article!
I began working for wages when I was 7 years old by picking strawberries in the fields of Oregon. When I finally retired in 1991, it was after a lifetime of paying taxes. I'm registered with and have no allegiance with any political party.
What bothers me about our recent health "Town Hall" meetings is mainly one item: The protesters do not act as if they came to learn about the various aspects of the central health reform plans being proposed. They attend and immediately act out vigorously to do nothing but obstruct the meetings with the patent intent to interfere with and prevent any open discourse and discussion with their shouting and disruptive antics.
So for me, I'm opposed to most public demonstrations by "Anti-Health Care Reform Town Hall Protesters," not for their beliefs and motivations but for their predetermined "kill everything" attitude. Frankly, if I were in charge of any meeting where this happened, I'd have such disrupters arrested for disturbing the peace. To refer to their actions as simply passionate and boisterous is preposterous.
All in all, I'm reminded of the argument that if we had just "killed" the idea of horseless carriages over a century ago, we wouldn't have to suffer all the automobile carnage on our present-day highways.
Thanks for sharing your views. It's nice to note that "Anti-Sharing Authorsden members and readers" aren't passionately and boisterously interfering with your right to present your views and ideas. If they were, you might have a different description for their actions.
