   Do you really? Because you claimed it was "funny" and I'm guessing you   
   didn't think it was "ha ha" funny but that it was "Strangely or   
   suspiciously odd; curious" funny.   
      
   So it sounded like you didn't understand why rich people "always" do   
   well.   
      
   It's because they have a lot of money.

   This isn't a democracy. Never has been. Perhaps your misunderstanding   
   of our government is the source of your ignorance.
