It seems that if we were to borrow some of RAH's concepts in our society, it might be a better place...

We'd all be alot better off if our society was ore like the one from Starship Troopers (Novel not the book)

You get the best idea of RAH's vision by reading his books from the late 40's and early 50's.
You also get an amazing view of a growth of world view as you read his later books.
I think I have read them all - at least all that I have been able to find in the last 50 years or so - a wonderful voyage.

I love his idea that true citizenship should be EARNED, and that you should need one in order to participate in politics. You should not gaincitizenship just for incidentally existing.

@bkiene hey I'm 'in the nest" now too!

@bkiene Why not? :) Especially considering that I have never been Michael (Jubal Harshaw is still my heroe). Last week I tried for the first time to tell my son (7) that a "door into summer" was not necessarily a real door and that writers like to describe things a bit different... however, all the best to you from Germany :D
read the star ship troopers.... :D
great book. *but I had to read it second time before it occured to me how genius book it was.

I believe I have every book and story written by Robert Heinlein and I read them all every year...I can almost quote from them as if they were religious writings! I am currently reading Stranger in a Strange Land and once again I am "in the nest" and trying to "grok" everything that is going on around me.
