  23. I prefer the "genetic-based" system that devolves on personal responsibility.
  24. I think the socialist ideals inherent in the "lottery" system have been 
  25. fairly well discredited by the events of the last few years.  (Besides,
  26. just thinking of the bureacracy involved makes me shudder!)
