 Greg's viewing individual "laborers" as worthless is a=
 reflection
 of his previously stated belief in the infinite supply of money=
 .
 Earlier I ask him to send me a few thousand , half of which I=
 will
 us to afford the time I spend on my activism and half I will=
 further
 distribute to organisations I feel are pursuing effective tasks=
 ,
 With full accounting on http://CoSy.com/Liberty.htm .

 Greg , I accept transfers via PayPal .

 Certainly people with limited abilities are on a continuum with
 worthless and "less than worthless" -- requiring charity to
 survive . They are rather fungible . That's why things like
 Minimum Wage ( and the entire governmental reporting and taxing
  the formality of accounting  by hour implies ) which create a
 dam in the continuum hurt rather than help .
