than as a sustainable source of income and good jobs. We seek our fortunes
through lotteries and lawsuits rather than hard work.

Ack, Brad! What is this "personal responsibility" you speak of?

In the words of Prince Humperdink, "I would not say such things if I were you!"

Don't you know that success is all a matter of luck? ;)

Seriously though, thanks for feedback and the kind words.
