I agree with you. It' all about money and being greedy. I am not greedy and don't have much money, but I have friends that I treasure. Thanks for sharing. Lucilla

4 the super rich, the bullys fate, what's in store, 4 the hogs debate, very true Harry mate, but will they slip through the, camels needle eye gate, when judgement comes, true blue, when money wont suck you through, a pain in the ole prostate, get it gone the ill gotten dues, how do it go "the rich have more chance, of slipping a camel through the eye of a needle, than entering the kingdom of heaven" ?
