You want a source for the definition of collectivism? Okay here is a good example of the collective mind being exposed.

This morning on Meet the Press, Lance Armstrong talked about trying to cure cancer and of stopping it before it enters anyone's body. His first suggestion was to make America smoke free. Tim Russert picked this up and repeated it with a smile.

If the Government gets a notion to do that, where do they even begin? All smoke stacks to be removed in America? Does it even matter that most have converters making the smoke harmless. Does it mean cars must not have exhaust coming out of their pipes? Does it matter than converters also have been put in the later models of the cars?

The human American brain cannot distinguish between one kind of smoke or the other and most certainly our fire places will be banned in the USA. Will this prohibit camp fires and outdoor BBQs? When the government starts to issue prohibitions on anything, it had better build some more prisons as most Americans will not fold up to these weak-assed politicians.

I will never keep anyone from having a smoke in my home. MY HOME! that I bought and paid for and will rule supreme within its walls. This starts out with Lance Armstrong who had testicular cancer which makes me wonder where the hell he smoked?

I had a women tell me that if I continued to spend time in the sun while swimming I could get stomach cancer. Where the hell do these idiots come from? Being as dark as I am, I get a check up all the time when I knick my leg shaving and it doesn't heal fast enough. I got bitten by a spider in California and it continued to blister for several months. Yes, I had dematologist remove it and he told me it could lead to cancer. Was it cancer? no! It was a nasty spider bite. He cut out so much skin, I have to wear bangs.

I have lived outdoors all my life and managed to get to 74 without a cancer anywhere. At 40 years old I quit smoking and that was the start of my problems. I gained 40 pounds, became more of a raging bitch than I was before and felt sick all the time. Even my female parts objected and made some tumors. Not cancer just tumors and I had them removed. My kids never had a cigarette because I smoked. I was the perfect example of what not to do. My husband lived with a pipe in his mouth and everyone I know and love smokes cigarettes or cigars and so what?

It was simple for me to recognize natural rights. I simply became familiar with the laws in the state of California and followed them. Everything else in my world was legal. But I was not a member of any religious group and had to figure my moral values without the sky daddy.

Americans have lost this set of values and will need a written guide to what they must not do. That is time for me to thow up my hands and leave the values to others. I have given up fighting for the rights of Gays, unmarried mothers, prostitutes, smokers and drug users. I don't give a damn what anyone does. My only fight is to keep the government out of the end of life choices. I hear from many "I will die when Jesus tell me to." So it means nobody else can ask for help when the pain of living is too much.

This is too heavy for me to accept. I'm tired of being the voice of reason here simply because my words are boycotted by some blow hard fools. Well, that is okay because I figure my days here are numbered. I have some serious writing to do before I meet with my group in a couple of weeks. I will stay logged in because some of you bring great links here that I need for reference.

In my world, only pure Atheists think the way I do and we have learned to separate the true thinkers from the religious thinkers. This is a group of high IQ writers, scientiests and producers of our future. They don't whine and ask Big Daddy to do something for them. Most are from Europe because Americans are lax in individual interests.
