Quote: Ok then, how much of this is real? Is Britain REALLY this bad? When George Orwell wrote 1984, he probably never imagined that society would actually become that oppressive.

I lost my copy of The Federalist Papers, from college days studying the Constitution. I will have to get it again and read them for the first time----- again. Makes for good reading especially the back and forth between Madison and Hamilton.

Posted by: Fish_Slapped Posted by: Precursors Posted by: Fish_Slapped I'd rather be the type that familiar with them, or the part of the rare minority of people who are educated and are familiar with literature, especially entertaining types of literature. Yes, my hopes are high. Without knowing any History neither is possible. How do you propose understanding Julius Caesar without ...
