This is a troll. This was not a troll. I am not playing or (intentionally) having fun at anyone's expense. I am dead serious on my belief of the absurdity of anyone being paid what they ask for doing a job, then believing they have some rights (by law) to what they were paid to do. The point of my absurd post you reference (compensate the caterer) is really not so absurd. It was purely to illustrate how broad this 'artistic' claim can get. If one profession is given this 'right' all professions should be given this 'right'. I truly am interested in civil discourse on this subject, but the 'opposition' doesn't want to give any. I do respect, and appreciate people's opinions, and insight...but when the only defense given is insult, that hardly make for civil discourse.
