This page was sent to you by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This needs to be connected to the articles about the housing crisis for poor and working class United Statesians, New Orleans and elsewhere. Of course, since the media denies that class is a relationship, treating it instead as a static station in life, they refuse to make this connection. They also fail to point out that the "charitable" giving of these pirates is largely to each other, ever fancier theaters, museums, and the like, gifts to their alma maters, etc. And that they get tax write-offs for it all! Ah, capitalism, it is indeed a savage beast. Love and Solidarity, Peter
