Here's the real lesson for Americans to learn from Deflate-gate

[Yavin4]

Deflate-gate, steroids in MLB, Lance Armstrong, and the housing bubble of the early 2000s are all object lessons for ALL Americans to learn one simple truth: Uber-competitive people are going to cheat to win. Plain and simple.

AND THAT'S WHY WE NEED STRONG REGULATIONS IN PLACE TO ENSURE THAT THEY DON'T.

And, if they get around the regulations and we catch them later, like Armstrong, we strip them of their "wins".

2. That's like saying it's no big deal to steal, say $50, but at some level it becomes

a punishable crime...say $1,000? My Dad used to say if you stole a quarter, you were a thief.

3. The rich can cheat and steal but

the poor will be punished........ and at times killed in the streets
