.. NEED decent housing and food. They NEED a chance at some self-respect. They NEED a planet that isn't being polluted to it's death.

"The arts" are a good thing, but when your basic NEEDS aren't being met, "the arts" aren't a substitute.

If you want to kiss the 1% ass, that is your choice, but if you are going to make excuses for their greed and immoral treatment of their fellow human beings, then expect to get some well deserved shit thrown at you.

We have millions of people homeless and dying from lack of medical care, with that number growing every day, and you want us to give the heartless, greedy bastards a pass because they finance YOUR lifestyle. Other than their wealth, you are different from them how?
