Good post John. Glad to see you're about still.
One word of curiosity though, was it the high class that survived because they were high class, or was it because they were likely on the higher decks and thus better able to get off the ship first? While the less affluent had positions lower in the ship so were first flooded or had a larger struggle to escape? Not the fault of the rich, being in better positions to hop ship than the less well off. However, for the sake on analogy, I get what you're saying.
SS, mate I think you've misunderstood MB's post. Or maybe I have. Think of it this way. Whose responsible for YOUR lifeboat, the gov or yourself? I think he's just saying that we're responsible to find our own way off the ship and build our own lifeboats, as the 'company' isn't doing anything to help us.
