employment insurance won't pay the bills

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2003.11.13

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
