They are focused more on the accumulation of power. Promising the masses whatever they desire, particularly sloth and laziness, only allows them, politicians, to lead more effectively and completely. Far too many are fattened calf's gleefully feasting in their pens ignorant, or uncaring, of the butchers waiting for the right time to harvest his supper.

Well, Sweden is a fav, though Swedes resentfully keep denying that.
Swedes DO tax like the capitalist libs they actually are.

It seems to me all this correct usage of the vocabulary being espoused is quite likely a move against Free Speech.

  It is. Note not the neologisms, but also the tendency for them to be collectivistic, as when someone uses they as a neutral singular, when English already has it.

    Makes one fear to speak in a crowd.That's what this group wants. Glad I'm no longer a Federal lobbyist. I'd end up in jail.

    I am not sure I would now know when to use 'they'. Do you use 'they' in a singular situation? My grammar teacher mother would have screamed until their hair fell out!

      As is the case with most Indo-European languages, he still works just fine.

Now the 'B' word commonly identifying a female dog, is prohibited in one Eastern U. S. State. It will get you a fine if directed toward a person!

  Maybe someone will try it and run it up to the Supreme Court. The SCOTUS SHOULD strike it down as unconstitutional - but who knows with that bunch.
