I'm referring to the people who make millions of dollars stomping on anybody else they can.

It has not been practiced in a manner that everybody can live alright in, because it hasn't been tempered by social conscience or common sense. Ideally, we ill have a should be looking out for other human beings without the government having to shove it in people's faces. But, many rich people have decided that poor means lazy. That isn't true. There's a Russian proverb: if everybody gives a thread the naked one will have a shirt. It's just a matter of people ethically understanding that we're all in this together. I don't think people who have money buying nice things because they worked hard is bad, I think rappers having golden swimming pools while people with college degrees are living in tents is bad. If one of these negligent bastards who parades their wealth while on the news it's reported we're in a giant recession gets one of their fifty sportscars stolen, it's not a tragedy and it's a consequence of those who have not giving a shit about those who don't. I refuse to believe CEO's work 100 times harder than factory workers. And as for deserving punishment for making millions off my books (should this happen), at this level, I'm doing every damn thing I can for unpublished writers I know and if something in the works goes through, I'll be doing even more. If I had resources, I'd be making sure a lot of artists didn't go starving.

nothing i read there excuses criminal behavior though.

i think the percentage of people comitting crimes just so they can eat (in north america) is pretty damn low.

Women only like to date assholes or rich guys or maybe rich assholes.

I believe in God, but I think people create these big ridiculous things about him that I don't think are true.

Also: Obama is the way worse than Bush ever was. The end. If you think otherwise, your opinion is invalid.:eek:
