From Heather to David
it's the culture - we're becoming a nation glued together by greed and encouraging the world to do the same
in global historic turns -- we're leading the way into the post-human rights period. homo economus
People just don't see this conversation for what it is - they think it's about spam, when it's really about defining a new notion, applied across all cultures, of a universal "person;" and establishing human rights that transcend geographical and national boundaries, and therefore escape sovereign power
The problem is - different cultures handle these issues in very different ways and our inability to accept this results in increased conflict.
