Hi Michael! Actually, it is not my original. It came from one of the turn of the (last) century "Robber Barons" who just didn't believe in robbing all that much. Turn of the 18th to 19th century, I should clarify. So it predates the popular adoption of Marxism and communism by a few years, although Marx may have been recently alive (d. 1883), he had no direct input to that particular idea, and wasn't going to be all that popular for another 10 to 15 years. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
