Hey, I want a Porsche, but it's too expensive. I think Porsche should sell
Carerras for 400 bucks. And they should give me new models for only a 100
bucks. I mean, why should I have to pay for a quality product. They should
subsidise me. It's only fair after all. I want something for nothing and by
God I should get it.
