NOTE: this is off topic (hey, when was the last time one of my posts WASN'T off topic!) but the closing comment of this otherwise superb posting has hit one of my buttons.

So I ask: "Capitalistic"?? If anything, the director is socialistic, not capitalistic. Capitalism is the economic system wherein individuals own property. Socialism is where the state owns the property and tells people what they can and can't do with it. Please don't fall for the NEA claptrap that everything bad is capitalism. This situation is one of the best illustrations I've seen of where socialism breaks down, and why capitalism promotes freedom.
