Isn't it interesting? The letters I fire off so frequently to the Dompost on the subject of abortion never see the light of day.
But behold, I write one about a billionaire's yacht and the homeless (see below) and bingo! It's in. Why? It's politically correct.
Thank God we still live in a democracy with a free press. Because the day may come when the needs of the homeless, jobless and hopeless are seen to outweigh the indulgences of the overpaid, overfed and overprivileged. And with the luxuries of the latter, like Graham Hart’s (Hart floats superyacht sale for $266m, July 11), flaunted in the face of the former, we should only have to wait for polling day to see some kind of justice done.

It adds irony to injury that having made his billions in packaging Hart
might fairly be described, in the terms of Dr Seuss, as the
‘Onceler’.
Since The Lorax was written in 1971, how many truffula trees
has he cut down?
