As I wrote the blog, I thoug...Yep, you were right.<br /><br />As I wrote the blog, I thought to myself that I needed to keep clear the distinction between what wealthy people do and what having money makes possible.<br /><br />In light of your criticism, I reread the post and discovered that there were, in fact, places where I made a poor use of language - doing exactly what I have criticized others for in using broad general terms without qualifiers where qualifiers were needed.<br /><br />I have rewritten relevant parts of the article in the hopes of clarifying those parts - replacing phrases that take the form "wealthy people do or have done X" with phrases of the form, "there are wealthy people who do or have done X."Alonzo Fyfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05687777216426347054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16594468.post-49646936275703617622016-06-14T10:16:18.012-06:002016-06-14T10:16:18.012-06:00Hmm...Alonzo, you are showing your hypocrisy a bit...Hmm...Alonzo, you are showing your hypocrisy a bit here.
