"Why is it that the pirate has, and always has had, a certain lurid glamour of the heroical enveloping him round about? Is there, deep under the accumulated debris of culture, a hidden groundwork of the old-time savage? Is there even in these well-regulated times an unsubdued nature in the respectable mental household of every one of us that still kicks against the pricks of law and order? To make my meaning more clear, would not every boy, for instance—that is, every boy of any account—rather be a pirate captain than a Member of Parliament? And we ourselves—would we not rather read such a story as that of Captain Avery's capture of the East Indian treasure ship, with its beautiful princess and load of jewels (which gems he sold by the handful, history sayeth, to a Bristol merchant), than, say, one of Bishop Atterbury's sermons, or the goodly Master Robert Boyle's religious romance of "Theodora and Didymus"

Raspundeti deci la intrebarea de mai sus, aia rosie. Si veti avea raspunsul la "sensul vietii" , "de ce suntem aici", etc etc.
Raspunsul meu (da e numai al meu, nu il declar universal, astept raspunsurile voastre). Joaca. Suntem aici sa ne jucam Primul care a uitat treaba asta e primul "cazut din rai".



Si ceva despre "universal healthcare", marea dezbatere din USA acum :

There are contemporary records that many pirates placed a portion of any captured money into a central fund that was used to compensate the injuries sustained by the crew. Lists show standardised payments of 600 pieces of eight ($156,000 in modern currency) for the loss of a leg down to 100 pieces ($26,800) for loss of an eye.

Piratii - si triburile inaintea piratilor aveau universal healthcare, de fapt "social security" de mii de ani. Altfel ar fi disparut in prima perioada grea din viata tribului. Cea ce - nu au facut. Nesimtiti. Adica se purtau intre ei mai bine ca noi :

Pirates readily accepted outcasts from traditional societies, perhaps easily recognizing kindred spirits, and they were known to welcome them into the pirate fold.
