That's not criminal though, it's taking from the poor so the rich can buy new cars and cruises but it's not criminal so there is no reason why we should scoff at that.

I think we're in agreement on that kind of crap.> > That's not criminal though, it's taking from the poor so the rich can > buy new cars and cruises but it's not criminal so there is no reason why > we should scoff at that.I know someone on another list whose attitude is "you should invest in the market, but if you don't know what you're doing, and do it as well as I do, I'll be glad to take your money". But we're way afield, and OT. My original cmt was just a one-off. If you want to continue, let's take this offlist. mark "moi? have opinions?"
