We deal with this already, bankers whose belief is that they are justified by
G-d and bribes to politicians to remain waealthy and powerful; auto-workers
who believe destiny and political bribes allow them overpayment for poor
quality work; gereations of citizens and non-citizens who believe they have
the rights to the fruits of 'your' labor.

The only difference is that, in the very near future, it may become a bit
more face-to-face. ................bobford
