So true. A good friend is a state judge, she is 50 and her earnings until
she retires at 55 will probably never surpass 90K. But she enjoys her work,
feels she is doing a useful public service (she adjudicates disputes between
the state and nursing/institutional homes, there is a lot of "funny
business" in the private nursing home bizness). After 55 she'll hang out
her private practice shingle in sunny Florida and take the occasional cases
as monetary lagniappe...



Poor child. A mere 90K a year and she cannot retire until she is 55.

But she was in very lucrative private practice until she was 40 :-)

pro english pop, I suppose.

It is probably just anti-establishment.

You
seem to like some revolutions and not others.

Texas won independence fair and square and then annexed into the
Union
Texas tried to secede from the Union a few years later. If there was
"land grab", it was initiated by your beloved Union which went to war
to keep Texas in that Union.

And New Mexico, Arizona, and California!
Earl

New Mexico and Califronia were "grabbed" by the Union and fought
against Texas and the CSA in their attempt to secede from the Union.
Arizona was under CSA control early in the war but was invaded and
conquered by Union forces in 1862 and remained under Union control.
Arizona remained a Union conquered territory and did not become a state
until 1912.

So you southerner were behind it trying to spread your disease of
slavery.
Earl

There goes that old worn out myth again that the War for Southern
Independence was really to "free the slaves".


" The war between the North and South is a tariff war. The war is,
further, not for any principle, does not touch the question of
slavery
and in fact turns on Northern lust for sovereignty."

Karl Marx- Die Presse 10/25/1861

But I thought that the US was supposed to be the establishment now?

For teenagers, the establishment is whatever their parents represent.

The issue might be whether we need more extremely well paid private
lawyers or smarter judges? Then the question is how does one
get them?

I thought the Nazis were fascists, like the Spanish and Italian
govts of the time.

The Nazis did not class themselves as fascist, the term came from
Italy, the term referring to the fasces, an ancient Roman symbol
of unity. The Nazis self-classed themselves as national socialist.

Nazi is the pronunciation of N Z, the initial letters of for National
Socialist in German.

"Enn Tsett"? :-)

It comes from the word "NAtionalsoZIalist".

Its much easier than that.

Its simply from the word National. In English that bit is pronounced as
'nashonal', in German as 'natsional'. But the socialist part of the
party name is the really interesting bit. Nowadays all the right
wingers who are ideologically close to the facists use it to ... well,
you know ...
