No, Carl, you are deliberately misunderstanding what I said. It's the ways and means. I readf you as saying that nothing but total revolution and an immediate transport to a classless society would be worthwhile, that defending reforms could not help. You said, Oh, all I meant was that we should advocate Finnish-style social democracy. I think that's fine. Not that we're going to get it in our lifetimes, but we're not necessarily going be regarded as totally insane either. Like you, I'd like tos ee more than Finnish-style SD, and we should advocate it where we can, but we have to fight to keep reforms too. If that's a right wing position, sign me up for the right. jks
