Why infringe on the right of the obscenely wealthy movers and shakers to squeeze an extra dime, an extra pound of flesh, an extra drop of blood? Why indeed?

A third is awaiting an operation. Put yourself in their shoes. Imagine what that would be like? Whatever your woes I hope they don't reach this level.
