67. There is no war but the class war. Not many DUers want to hear that.
Try advocating that DUers stop using credit cards -- oh, the howls of outrage! Advocate something that might threaten their 401Ks? Immoral! Heartless!

It's long been a source of amazement to me, how so many people ostensibly advocating for "change", can be so resistant to any proposals that actually WOULD effect bigtime change.

Advocating change on the rhetorical level is all well and good, as long as no one has to actually give up any of their comforts, or stop buying into the economic system that exploits them.
