I'm (not surprisingly) with Stubert on this one. If blowhard billionaires can give a voice to people who would not otherwise have one, it's not a bad thing in the least, especially when it comes to issues that every last man, woman and child should care about. Who cares if he's going to make a lot of money off of it- we live in a world of accelerated capitalism, and if I recall, it's people like Kevin who staunchly support that sort of thing in the fucking first place, right? Right. |
I think what people like Kevin take issue with (other then intellectual honesty, of course) is the champange-socialism exhibited by people like Mr. Cameron. Have some integrity... if you're going to tell people to give more to support the en vouge cause de jour then you should be leading by example. Honestly, how much money does he need? If he really cares as deeply as he postures to then he should liquidate all his assets beyond a reasonable living amount to support same... anything short of that just smacks of a rich bastard trying to feel better about himself through tokin support of some seemingly worthy cause.
