That was a good encomium on VVV. The Brits were successful in building a whole class of citizenry dedicated to service. It all fell down what that ideal was no longer shared by the upper class. For the degenerate upper class it turned into an all you can eat buffet. Now it is all about nude royalty, rogue traders and cocaine Kate.
