That is truly what you believe? Amazing.

What isn't a matter of opinion: the extremely simple concept of supply and demand. In our economy which is the closest approximation of a free market system, you are paid what you are willing to work for and what you are worth. These "true talents" are laid off because what they bring to the table is less than what they take from the table.

You probably make the "rich doctor, poor teacher" argument. Yet, how many folks can operate on a baby vs. how many can teach 4th grade? Just think for once--put away the emotions.

@2:43--

Your "more intelligent" statement made me chuckle a little after you: 1) Used the term "Rethuglicans", 2) cannot discern the difference between a downturn in the economy and a specific publication's business failures 3) believes that direct theft of possessions would lead to any kind of good. Whew (wiping forehead), please stay over there with your "intelligence."
