The people become a monarch... such people, in its role as a monarch, not being controlled by law, aims at sole power and becomes like a master. Aristotle
We Americans live in a nation where the medical-care system is second to none in the world, unless you count maybe 25 or 30 little scuzzball countries like Scotland that we could vaporize in seconds if we felt like it. Dave Barry
