Actually, I was thinking of you when I wrote the last bit. I nearly put "except for Grufty Jim" in brackets.

I do understand where you're coming from. People will not vote for a voluntary reduction in their standard of living or level of consumption, therefore change has to be imposed from somewhere. ie) above.

Currently, the authority of the state seems to be most harshly directed against those that wish to turn us aside from ever increasing consumerism.

And yeah I know. I'm sitting on my fat arse preaching revolution again. Sorry.
