I think because we're supposed to be all about pulling oneself up by one's bootstraps and rags to riches, and...oh, I don't know. It has something to do with Capitolism. Or Ayn Rand.
The whole thing just...Since Obama's election, I swear these people have gotten crazier and crazier. It's...well...can I come live with you? I don't eat much and we'll be quiet.
Quick aside, during the '04 election I kept joking if Bush won again I'd move to England. He did, and a few weeks later Charlie says to me, "Oh, Mommy! We forgot to move to England!'
