America from the inception of its existence has been the spear-head of human development. In recent time, I for one feel our steadfast advancement beginning to waver. With declining job opportunities, a troubling war, and controversial abridgements to the constitution that I feel defile much of the humanity of the document in order to protect us from terror. I feel our American pride begin to flail. I myself am not always sure of our industry and humanity. I have been called many things: a communist, “ the voice of Marx ” , an anarchist, however with this statement I affirm my patriotism. I have for some time questioned our capitalist society recently I have found to be the only flaw in our development not to be our political philosophy but the affect the misconception of our ideals creates in personal psychological needs. I assert that the basis of our culture and humanity for that matter is to love. We are born out of the love of our parents, we work hard every day to provide and earn the love of another. With this we then seek to love our nation, for instance by paying taxes we aim to help the downtrodden. Essentially the purpose of our existence is to better humanity, to develop a better future for our children. We are fighting a war against terror to preeminently protect Americans, and to provide inexpensive oil for our American brethren. Without being outspoken I beg you to remember our adversaries wish only to protect what they esteem to be theirs, and protect a religious life that has been very fruitful to their people.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.237.189.132 (talk • contribs)

What in god's name does this sentence mean: "Like so many other Tolstoys, Count Lev Nikolaevich (1828–1910), more widely known abroad as Leo Tolstoy is cited as one of the greatest Russian novelists of 19th century." I deleted it.

The original version of the article said: "Like so many other Tolstoys, Count Lev Nikolaevich (1828-1910) started his career in the military". It made much more sense. --Ghirla -трёп- 13:04, 3 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We need to make this at least a disambiguation. Skinnyweed 21:03, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
