Is it coincidence that we're reading this on the same day that AP is reporting that King Charles' worth is in the vicinity of $2 billion? And tax-free income for the rest of his life; talk about the "lucky sperm club".

"The poor we'll always have with us..." said Jesus. And circa 800 B.C. one of the wisest, and richest, kings ever, Solomon, noticed that "Poverty is the destruction of the poor..." (Proverbs 10:15). It's a recurring problem, the inequality of some having far in excess of what they need, while many beg for their next crust of bread. Situations change, and cultures change, but human nature remains the same.

That the Brits simply adore their Queen and her hive of parasites is beyond my understanding, while members of the family that have some spine, and are willing to stand up to them are vilified (Harry and Meghan). The Brits have a 2000 year tradition of genuflecting serfdom, and obviously have no real pride.
