Re: My hill of beans . . .
Sorry Dan, My mistake.
I was thinking in terms of how Political Ideology was defined for me. It was defined as a set of beliefs took the place of careful consideration and thought.
Ideology was a machine that had a hopper on end where you placed thoughts, opinions, situations etc. and on the other a conveyer belt where neatly packaged instant reactions popped out.
I have no doubt the values and beliefs that you have passed on to your children and future generations are worth far more than a "Hill of Beans."
