Dear OpusatFR,

Gee, I don't have a private jet OR live in a gated community.

However, I don't really care for it when empty-headed entertainers say things like:

"America is dumb, it's like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you, aggressive."

( http://www.cnn.com/2003/SHOWBIZ/Movies/09/03/depp.us.reax.reut/ )

I won't criticize folks who differ, but personally, I prefer not to patronize the trash that jackasses like this put out.

I respect why you'd say that.

Personally, I don't care what the pizza guy says about George Bush to some reporter doing a 'man on the street' interview. I just want him to deliver my pizza hot, and on time.

I don't pay Johnny Depp for his political opinions. I pay to see his movies, when I like the premise. "Pirates of the Carribean" was a great deal of fun, I really liked that movie. This one really looks like it might even be better than the first. So I'm going.

That's Adam Smith's "invisible hand". Capitalism is people with wildly different goals working together, each to further their own ends.

I'm a capitalist and a believer in free speach. I buy things from people I politically disagree with every single day.

And I think they all have they certainly should feel free to tell any reporter their opinions, if asked. And I feel free to disagree with them.
