Cummings is a good man, and also my Congressman.

I'd starve to death in the drug business...I couldn't do that to people.

I probably COULD do it to the insurance companies, only they won't let you.

And if the insurance companies would lower their premiums, I couldn't do it to them either.

Yeah, but we all know that you make a lousy capitalist, Chas. You pay your workers more than you actually have to. You fix a job if it isn't done right - without looking for some new fee to charge. You are just not sufficiently reverent toward the almighty dollar to really make a killing.

That's OK Chas. We're willing to forgive such obvious character flaws.

Regards,

D-Ray
