Ed, don't take it as a personal insult if some one thinks you are a Marxist or socialist. It is a compliment even if not intended that way and I don't think Gary is baiting you at all. I know Americans are touchy about it though. Like a visceral reaction from the underlying cultural indoctrination.
And Gary, being a socialist can also be in your heart and not in your head. Ed is coming from his heart.
