The sad fact is that all of us have been at some point, or are currently victims of, wealthy envy. We often see things that others have and in some quiet moment wish we had it too. Many of us even use this envy to fuel our ambition. Even if it was when you were young, you saw something that someone else had and wanted it. In my opinion the number of people envying the wealthy has not risen dramatically. Neal is absolutely right that some of us are lazy, witless, spoons. We aren't all critical thinkers, motivated to be the best we can be. However, we are all capable of becoming, and that is what I espouse. BE CRITICAL THINKING! Now, the guy that wrote the article about the $500,000 parking space missed the point when he discussed this with Neal. He should have let Neal have it by remaining calm and clearly explaining his point. He also should remember that Neal is an entertainer and does this for a living. YOU CAN'T WIN! Anyway, point one, can the wealthy be compassionate? Sure they can. Or, if they so choose, they can flaunt what they have, even in these harsh economic times. The point, which the guy couldn't even make, is that with people losing their homes, can the rich person selling the parking lot simply show some compassion? That's it. Point two, we firmly believe in letting the market determine the value of goods. This is the successful model we have employed as a nation to become the world's economic powerhouse. Still, am I the only one that doesn't think it's sad that a parking space is going for $500,000? I don't care where it is, or how close it is to the slopes. It's a parking space, people! It's not a Renoir(spelling?). It's not an ancient sculpture. It's not a luxury fur, a piece of fine haute couture clothing, a Swiss timepiece, or a piece of wondrous tech. IT'S A PARKING SPACE! Who is the sucker that's going to buy it? This is America and we have the right to do what we want with our money. Yet, you, whoever you are, if you pay $500,000 for some concrete that's squared off by paint, I reserve the right to talk about your fat broodmare, cigar-smoking, sitting on your pampered backside, I want your money but not your mentality, behind ... LIKE A DOG! I can do that my friends, because I'm American. <br> <br> D.S. Brown<br> www.2rulesof3.com<br> blog.2rulesof3.com By D.S. Brown
