The way *I* you seem to forget I am one of those Boomers who are into *I* and I am not dis-counting what you do for a living at all, but it's far from the sweat that many men had to do to take care of a wife and 7 children with little education....

You aren't discounting my work... but you insist it doesn't begin to compare...

Reminds me of the immortal words of G. K. Chesterton: "may I say that while tortures would not tear from me a whisper about his intellect, he is a blasted old jackass."

The sweat of a man's brow is only worth what a nother man's intellect has made it worth. Without intellectual advancements, man's labor would never see productivity increases.

You really need to read "Atlas Shrugged."
