Keep it clean

Dear readers,

Many of you seem to be having a wonderful online talk about the role of government, society, taxation, etc.

BUT a few people are acting like jerks. Stop. Keep it clean, please. Comments with obscenity, profanity or otherwise unacceptable discourse are deleted.

And even if you get truly steamed, try to refrain from childish name-calling. This is an interesting and provocative forum. Please help keep it that way.

And finally, my thanks to those many regular readers who, even though they disagree with one another, do so with civility (if not affection).

Mary
