The problem I have seen with giving people money is that rather than empowering people, it seems to corrupt them. There are exceptions of course.

Twenty-one speeds. I only use three. I can't imagine why anyone would want twenty-one speeds. Kind of like having money. After you have enough to live your life, why would you want to make any more?

I find your posts fascinating Harry. I am not much interested in gardening, although I seem to have a green thumb and can make plants grow and thrive. I'm kind of like old Henry Ford. He grew up on a farm, but all he wanted to do was work on the tractor. Still, your posts about gardening are interes...

I am humbled.
