I wish I could find even a trace of logic in Murphies arguments, but they elude me I’m afraid.

I enjoyed the time I spent in the UK, but if guys like him hold sway I hold out little hope for that country. The home of liberty falling that far depresses me no end.

The huddled masses, when they buy a lottery ticket or place a bet on the horses, are paying tax on the stake to avoid tax on the winnings, and Murphy thinks they are all as bad as rioter and looters.
