    Really? I'm impressed. I didn't think such puerile posts could come from someone over 18.

    Umm, he does have a point. Two thirds of the world's people live in abject poverty. They work sun up to sun down, six days a week, for about 300 dollars a year. The computer you use to (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) about the rich and your lot in life is worth probably three years wages for the average poor person in third world countries. You'll never starve, you're not illiterate, and you'll most likely live past the age of 45.
    That's a hell of allot more than a vast majority of people around the globe can hope for.

    But ya, your constant stream of woah is me isn't chicken(*)(*)(*)(*) at all.:rolleyes:

    What would Ben Franklin opine in modern times, about poor boys who don't know how to read, on a rainy day, but do have Internet access?

    In modern times, corporate welfare even pays multimillion dollar bonuses.
