Steen, putting on my moderator's hat, please watch your use of the loaded terms DaddyO referred to.  As DaddyO says, the audience here does not want to be sidetracked by the loaded terms, the "moneyed parasite", "cynic", "disingenuous", etc tone.  That derails the idea exchange, which is normally frictionless at SSI.
That's not me taking personal offense.  That's the site moderator asking you to simply match the community tone as expressed in the comment threads and Shout Box.  This happens so seldom at SSI that most people *forget* there is a moderator here.  :- )
Say anything you want, but say it in a manner consistent with the site's tone, please.  The goal is baseball / philosophy discussion without being at each others' throats.
Cheers,
Moderator
