[ author ](https://lists.cpunks.org/pipermail/cypherpunks-legacy/1997-July/author.html#...) --------------------------------------------------------------- The Congressional Record reprinted July 23 "Anti-Government, Anti-Social Attitudes," a news column which examines the increasing discontent caused by governmental programs. It describes the increasing psychopathology by those who have suffered economic harm due to shifts in the nation's and international resources and the appeal of anti-government and anti-social acts in response to failure to meet obligations to the citizenry. Not a few think OKC bombing is the the way to fight government-sponsored terrorism against civilians. http://jya.com/anti-gov.txt Couple that with reports on DoD's efforts to combat terrorism against its troops abroad, more funding of counterterrorism and more sharing of "dual-use" weaponry with jittery, trigger- itchy law enforcement and IRS infohighway bandits around the globe. Boil the frogs. Says the snarling marshal (OSFOR trooper), just back from stress counseling and a beer, to the neighbor (rapee) kicking and screaming: It's dog eat dog, in the battle to keep our family fed, so sorry, but we gotta enforce order and the law (our exculpatory Bible), burp, tell it to the judge (the President), my therapist (godfather). Meanwhile have a pleasant remand while the court's on vacation.
