unfortunately maurice ,it is human nature to go to extremes.....what may start as an excellent idea often becomes an object of abuse.....it is not the idea that is to blame but rather an inflexable system bound by laws that can be subverted by the clever and greedy.

personally i feel that giving a few crumbs to the underclasses ensures that they will not try to take it all.......bread and circuses as the romans put it....only today its big macs and television.

is that cold blooded and capitalistic enough for you?
