Unfortunately this is not really about America, Ben. I just got an email from my friend Mike in suburban New York. His neighbor, who I know well, had 1,000 employees killed on the 52 floor of Tower 2. Do you have any sympathy about that Ben?

There are lots of naive, socialistic people in funny little naive socialistic countries that hate America, and they can and should have a fun little gloat that the world's greatest buildings - in America, of course - have been blown up. This is only to be expected, and it's not even annoying at all, because funny little naive socialistic people are funny little naive socialistic people and that's how their bitter little minds work. This is, quite simply: An attack against capitalism and rationalism - ie, against civilization. It's not an attack against the US Government --- it's simply an attack AGAINST CAPITALISTS, regardless of nationality. Here's a fascinating site .. http://chaostan.com Essentially half the world "missed out" on the Enlightenment. This sort of thing is the final (pathetic) attempts of the world's anti-individual, anti-civilization, anti-trade, anti-capital, anti-freedom, tribalists. Anyone who thinks this is an attack "against America" has never travelled outside Manchester. I can't think of a part of the world that is more "international" than downtown NYC. I mean, it's called the "world" trade center for a reason. My guess would be that 25% of the people dead have nothing to do "with America", they would be citizens of other countries. Certainly, the attack on the *Pentagon* was an attack against the "Evil Nation". The overall theme here, is simply an attack against commerce - trade - civilization - capitalism - freedom - rationalism. An attack launched by the remnants of non-rational, non-capitalistic, non-individualistic humanity. Let us pray to the holy Dollar .. the sign of rationalism, honest trade between decent rational people, and civilization itself .. that everything from Vienna to Beijing is turned into a sea of radioactive glass. Death to all tribailists -- save us the nuisance by slaughtering them now. As civilization progresses bit by bit, advances like http://e-gold.com and http://goldmoney.com will leave socialists, environmentalists, communists, animists and statists further and further behind -- DGCs are on the cutting edge of being a capitalist .. celebrate and rejoice in the fact that you are a capitalist. Make an e-gold spend today! Life is capitalism -- celebrate capitalism. Realize that by being an "early adopter" of e-gold and DGCs you are making an incredible, critical contribution to pushing forward capitalism, rationalism, individualism, civilization .. somewhat in the way that Scientists make key discoveries which push forward rationalism and civilization, early adopters of new ideas are critical to push forward the advance of capitalism -- another word, and the only other word, for civilization.
