Hi All

Just a quickie to show that Mr P. isn't entirely convinced that all things capitalist are best.

"There are so many kinds of problem people like Rigel around, he thought, but the ones who go
posing as moralists are the worst. Cost-free morals. Full of great ways for others to improve without
any expense to themselves. There's an ego thing in there, too. They use the morals to make
someone else look inferior and that way look better themselves. It doesn't matter what the moral
code is - religious morals, political morals, racist morals, capitalist morals, feminist morals, hippie
morals - they're all the same. The moral codes change but the meanness and the egotism stay the
same."
