Oh here we go! The old "contributes nothing to society" bullshit that the haters always pull out of their pockets (or asses).

Alan, I could argue the case of what good does your phony TV show peddling paid advertising as if t is a legitimate honest review do to society?

But it doesn't even matter. The days where everyone "makes something", where everyone is a butcher, baker or candlestick maker are gone. In today's society, most professions are middlemen and /or paper pushers. Very few people actual produce anything. What is important today is that anything earned, and spent, helps fuel the economy. As long as it is money earned legally, and sadly even money earned illegally, helps support many supportive type jobs, so those people can take a paycheck home and spent to further support the economy. It is a never ending cycle.

So get off you high horse Alan. My money helps keep people working and support the economy just the same as yours.
