You're pretty much wrong on every count. The bully class is probably more influential than at any time in history. But there are many who have the insider knowledge to be in the bully class but aren't. I'm sure I could, as you advocate. No thanks. Russ Winter could, but isn't. There are others, I'm sure <g> A communist system? No thanks, you can keep that for yourself. Unfortunately, our present course will probably lead to that conclusion. Maybe after it does you will get it why some lament at the poor leadership of today and wonder aloud, "How did they know?" And your comrades will say, "Shuddup and eat your meat, Balls!" And you are also grossly misguided in thinking I don't play in the system in which I live. It's the only system to play. But unlike you, I do not actually have dreams of being a bully or a thug. And that is precisely my point and my complaint -- too many people like you who only see the two states of being: be a rich thug, or be a impoverished comrade. In my experience, it is impossible for dualistic thinkers to even comprehend the gray area in between, and a truly functional free market requires the gray area to be seen and understood, and embraced. So no thanks to the Kook-aid, no thanks to just embracing the severely disfunctional system, no thanks to hiding in a hole, no thanks to like-it-or-lump it (that's UN-American, to me). All your remedies are in the playbook of the bully class... I have tremendous respect for a number of wealthy people, btw. You are wrong on that account as well. <g>
