to me. I know a lot of du'ers see them all as inherently evil by intent and not just negligence, but I have not had that proven to me yet.

However, the concept of the sheltered world outlook is a very, very important one. And the results can be just as deadly.

Perhaps this is what made Bill Clinton more compassionate, a man with an alcoholic father who had to struggle early in his life.

I'm not saying that the wealthy can't be compassionate, but there is that whole "eye of a needle/camel" reference to ponder.
