I think you may be on to something there Gpa. The culture check up is what we need more than anything. MTV is a classic example of money driving "culture" (if you can even call it culture). I also think that H2o has a valid point in regards to the "drug war". This is a war that is in the best interest of politicians and the "market" for drugs. I don't think comparing it to the war in Iraq is necessarily a good opinion as I do not believe this is a good "war" for politicians nor is it artificially sustaining a market. That is, if you believe Homeland security is not a market.
