Since you brought it up, what have you done for your country?

I've done a helluva lot more for the country than PB, Odin and Eric. I will most likely surpass you as far as overall accomplishments and contributions as far as jobs, wages and financial contributions relating to tax revenues and the continued funding of  liberal programs  are concerned.

I would have done a heck of a lot more had someone diagnosed Asperger's syndrome in me when I was young, and I might have even become a conservative Republican on economic matters. I might even have become an elected public official, and I would be just the one to deal with on matters of handicaps. With Asperger's as bad as I have it I might have a family -- with adopted children. It may be a good thing that I have sired no children who might end up institutionalized for severe autism. Like attracts like, so I might have found someone with a similar tendency (Asperger's) as a wife.

But -- I recognize the value of formal education, the need for legal precedent, and for an economic order that helps people who don't have everything going for them.

I'd rather have a well-paying job that inflicts heavy taxes on me.

Asperger's seems to be fairly common in this forum.
