    | The only problem with this world view, it's not like that in all the

    The rest of us are paying for people like him.
    Just like everyone pays to feed the glutton stuffing his face with mounds of
    lobster at the all you can eat buffet. If everyone used the same level of
    moderation the price would be lower for all.
