Leftwing Defeatism

13-08-2002 12:07

Leftwing Defeatism
I am strong, and resolute, trying to find stratagems to beat the big guys at their own game, but guess what? It appears that only Republicans are allowed this sense of exhilaration these days!

Thailand: A pay rise seems difficult to justify

12-08-2002 23:54

No one forced these 700 people to assume public office. As it is, their base pay is
already more than six times the per capita income of their constituents. Asking
taxpayers to bear the burden to widen the income gap between their political
