Mitch, you *really* need to work on your literary comp. How you find
"blame" in that sentence, while missing the avarice is amazing.
> Id be happy to tilt a p[int or two with ya someday John!
Short arms and deep pockets indeed! :-)
Oh yea, wth is a avarice :)

It's funny those with the freedom to award themselves such salaries
highly approve, but those self same people also howl in horror when a
minimum wage is set. Reason is it protects people from exploitation by
"the market".
Freedom is assumed to be universal, but it's not, at least not the kind
we have. It's extremely highly contextual, and cannot be considered to
be equally applied to all.
Bill, there are 45,000 people PER DAY dying of starvation around the
world. THAT is who cares, and why we should care.
Still, I'd better warn you they're not from the US, so f*ck 'em, eh? Who
could care less?
Bill
So to reverse the subject change back to yourself, how about you? Do you
think it's worth caring about, even acting upon? We worry about gas
going over $3 per gallon, and if the SUV was a good purchase, while
driving to McDonalds for calories we don't need. Meanwhile elsewhere in
our cozy planet those 45,000 people a day are dying worrying where their
next meal comes from.
No-one said the world had to make sense.
