Miz Riley -

I was baiting you, purposely looking to draw that response.

First off, I am not a rich kid.  I spent the better part of my childhood
well below the poverty line as the child of a single mother.  However, 
through my own efforts, (yes, I do believe in the supremacy of the
individual) I have bettered my lot, and I plan to make it better still
in the future through THE ACCUMULATION OF LARGE AMOUNTS OF WEALTH AND
INDIVIDUAL POWER.  (Did you cringe, Riley?  Good.)

I am sure that your intentions are for the best, Miz Riley, constantly
striving for a society where all are equal, as equally *dirt fucking poor*
as my dear mother was.  But then, in your society, everyone would be on
welfare, yes?  

Speaking of the social pictures of simpletons, Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao
were all recently and quite soundly debunked in many nations, including
the ex-USSR and the PRC.  (That's "People's Republic of China," in case
you're not up on your geography, Riley.)  But I'm sure that if there had
been enough blathering radlibs like yourself to "educate" them, the 
grand experiments in Human Rights and Better Living could have been saved.
