That may be an explanation, but it's not a justification. Why don't these people own the land they live on? Keep asking why a couple more times.

I find it obnoxious when a commenter whines about a single word in the first line of a long article. It's hard to imagine any reason for that beyond "look at how good of a complainer I am".

I keep saying this to anyone who will listen — I doubt very much that he's interested in running for anything. As CEO of Facebook, if he's not as powerful as a US president yet, he very well might be in 5 or 10 years. He hinted in
