A bit off-topic, but a friend of mine told me this:
"You know, I think the United States might be one of the only nations in the history of our world where the wealthy have the gall to say that they're the ones being oppressed."
Alas, no. The more power an identifiable minority group has, the better it is able to protest its perceived or real discrimination...
True, I suppose. It just seems that the American riches are rather extra-obnoxious in their persecution complex.
Money can buy you power, but it can't buy you happiness.
