I'm not going to talk about the politcs of envy, but your use of the term
"Winner take all" made me think of the perverse electoral system. California
has 55 electoral votes. What happens is, if Al gets 28 electoral
votes, and Bob gets 27, they report that Al got all 55 votes.

In other words, if you voted for Bob, and Bob loses, THEY CHANGE YOUR VOTE!
California turns in 55 electoral votes for Al.

That's just evil.

Thanks,
Rich



That's a Republic.

What? You thought we were a Democracy?
