Oh, I realise you were speaking ironically. My beef is more that you're
speaking incorrectly from my viewpoint, and that you're espousing political
opinions in an incendiary way in the wrong group.

You (and Shiri) clearly have issues with the system, take it up in .debate or
stop. This is supposed to be a group for light subjects. Trashing capitalism
and whining about the haves isn't at all a light subject.
