there's no such thing as a "free market", never been in (recorded)
human history. market economy always needs a *careful* balance of
regulation vs. individual freedom - otherwise it easily collapses
into fascism (quite exactly what we see now).

Yeah, probably the same kind of people who exported their shallow
end of the gene pool to us ... now they have to learn their lesson
w/ Erika :p

By the way, the "east" (actually it's _central_ :p) is probably the
primary driving force in the current revolution. We did it once, and
we'll do it a second time.

Well, in the current situation, the HQ of the "Soviets" is probably
Bruxels ... well, the Britans did us a big favour by hitten the
EUDSSR hard w/ brexit. I'd guess the Gallians are probably next to
directly stand up against the empire (they're already are almost in
civil war) ...
