Oh yes, I'm a very practical man, Burney. It's amazing how few moral, ethical or philosophical issues there are when people are gainfully employed and financially secure.

BTW, are you now a fan of democracy? I could have sworn it wasn't that long ago (pretty much every day, actually) that you were proposing that certain people not be allowed to vote. Common people and students, as two examples.
