Success will cost a wad and take years of pettifogging, for the state will fight you every step of the way. And just think, to get this treatment from your public servants, you never need suffer the inconveniences of being arrested, charged, indicted, convicted or sentenced - for anything. Nevertheless, there you will be, sent into penury by the state for being suspected of being suspicious. Not many years ago we loaded up with H-bombs and prepared for war unto destruction against a government that did things like this. Now that the Soviet Union is gone, it ill-behooves us to adopt its more malodorous practices.
