    Considering my age and that I’ve actually worked in Investment Banking, your take on me is hilarious.

    Let me explain it in a really, really, REALLY, simple way:

    • Those with enough power to alter the environment in which you live and force you to live differently ARE responsible if they choose to do so, and applies just as much to those whose power comes from being in Government as those whose power comes from the Money and Properties they inherited from Mommy and Daddy.

    It’s ideological blindness to a level only found in cults to not apply the same rules of responsability to those whose power comes from money as to those whose power has a different source: Power is Power and using one’s position of having way much more Power that most other people to limit the choices and even force choices on those other people is, for those who think people should as much as possible be Free, equally wrong, no matter what the source of that Power is.
