Parasite? The dude is actually a good guy. He made his fortune through innovation, the use of rayons and nylons when silk was in short supply, and creativity. (who does not like leopard print panties on a woman?) You assume that because he has money that he is a parasite. However, he is one of the rare individuals that can afford to be a jerk, yet is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.

I don't really care how "nice" he is. You don't pull hundreds of millions of dollars or billions of dollars out of a society by running a nice little business that is full of do gooders. It is done by thrashing your competitors being ruthless with your suppliers to the point of putting them out of business and usually making secret moves to destroy your competitors while working very hard to make it all seem legit.

In America if someone becomes obscenely rich then everyone seems to worship them, all the dodgy business moves are ignored or brushed under the carpet. I suspect that is a bit of a generalisation but I will stand by what I say.

Regards, Martin.

Get on track Stuart; this is a thread about Martin wearing animal printed Lycra underwear; and there is something in there about cycling (certainly an incentive to go that way). :lol:

I though it was about Martin being annoyed about having to pay an extra few percent on his animal print underwear that went to the inventer and that this made him a bad person (the inventor not Martin). :D

We are internet users, we are not only free to judge, but it's our duty to make loud, opinionated and judgmental statements about anything we feel like. Even better if it's a subject we know little about... :)
