Can't say that Karzi isn't a fast learner in he has picked up quickly how CodPiece became a millionaire by confiscating a family's ranch in Arlington Texas to build a baseball stadium at tax payer's expense. And even after having the government confiscate this family's land, they had to take Codpiece and Gang to court to get them to pay a fair price for the land.
