Bullshit?
For shame, Captain! SHAME!
D...Diamonds? Bullshit?<br /><br />For shame, Captain! SHAME!<br /><br />Diamonds are no more bullshit than anything else.<br /><br />Anybody can jump into an existing market and play. But it takes real smarts to create a market and then control it!<br /><br />Sure, your cheap disposable Casio watch will do the job...but don't try to tell me it's just as good as a Rolex or a Breitling!<br /><br />Vanity is a market like any other and if you can provide the bling and flash to feed it - why not make a buck off it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-6080866287634812022013-06-13T08:10:09.346-07:002013-06-13T08:10:09.346-07:00If you work with someone just like you, say someon...If you work with someone just like you, say someone of the same race, and it produces a surplus of utility, it's social capital.<br /><br />If you work with that same person, but you leech off of others, it's nepotism.<br /><br />A lot, perhaps the VAST MAJORITY, of supposed anti-racism, is to disarm the first group to make more room for the second one to do its dirty work.
