Did anyone notice the increase in the use of the world "rich" over the
past few days? I mean with Buffet et all doing the right thing.. I can see. But part of me worries it could be another wedge. We've discussed this at length and agree as long as you are paying your income taxes in a progressive fashion... the beef isn't with what you have. It is with what you stand for.

It's nice that he wants to make up for draining the money out of the world.....but the other rich guys don't care how poor and ill-cared for other people are.

I don't want my fate left to benevolent kings.
