But plug in accurate numbers and you get the same results. Spread the (SOCIALISM AT IT'S BEST) wealth. Aw hell. It's easier to tell the "Give a man a fishing pole" story. I like that one - and fishing is more fun than potato farming. --Vic Give a man a fish, and if he's smart, he'll eat the fish and make a bunch of hooks made from the fishbones. He'll sell 1/2 of them, make a bunch of money, and buy his fish next time instead of sitting on his ass trying to catch them. For each fish he buys, he'll sell 1/2 the bones, and soon he'll be making real money, for which he'll have to pay some tax, which will be used to buy some other smart guy a fish. Thus, capitalism with some social responsibility. If you teach him just to fish, he'll be a fisherman all his life. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
