Sorry, you missed the boat. I've been a member for years. Every since I realized the govt gimme game was rigged to penalize WASPs who sought to better themselves through individual initiative and personal responsibility. The sad thing is, the "minorities" I've known over the years who adhered to the same principles always seemed to do just fine despite being villified for their success/principles by their own communities.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
