[net.space] Crippling the Russian economy

	If we're really interested in crippling Tsar Leonid's economy, why
don't we just ship him Nader, Fonda et. al.?  They seem to have done wonders
for ours...

Right, that'll let us get back to abusing innoncent customers, raping the land
with no thought of preservation and all those other things that made american
buisness so strong.

No thanks, I think I rather have a clean environment and products which are
actually safe and designed to work well. I'm sure that the Soviets would
appreciate such things, since they have a lot of pollution caused by their
attempts to match western industrial might.

  That Ralph Nader is harmful to our economy is

1) A matter of opinion, not fact, and
2) Not relevant to this newsgroup.

Hold on there!  Even as a joke, this isn't very funny, and definitely
INAPPROPRIATE as a submission for the Space bboard.  Why don't you
content yourself with letters to the editor of your local newspaper,
maybe supplemented with graffiti or something?  I'd like to tell you
what's wrong with your opinion, but that would just perpetuate
unfortunate political discussion on this bboard, and anyway you should
be able to figure it out yourself.
