As in every dictatorial regime, what is to the benefit and use of people is not considered, what appears expedient for selfish reasons to the ruling elite is what gets through...How else would you explain double digit inflation in a country that has over 80% of its population living below $2 a day, and I would bet 80% of that 80% live under $1 a day....and yet multi-bullion dollar defense deals go through and the country is sold to the highest "dime bidder"...

I know Chowk Admin are capricious....but blocking u is not good.

If everybody agrees with everybody what's the use of Chowk?

I had been blocked for the past 24 hours thanks to influence by the High Priest of the dead Church of the MAJ and many of his co-conspirators. This new system allows the dictatorial Chowk Staff to block users messages, ilogs and interacts and nothing appears on the screen, so the people's power is diminished as the people cannot protest if someone is blocked because he badmouthed tahmed's support for colonization. So if in the future you don't see my name in the posts, and are wondering what happened, either the hitmen of the imperialists got me- though they have better things to do, or the Chowk Staff has unceremoniosly thrown me out.....
