Why do they allow Razib to post that?" <br><br>Because it's true. Whether it's nice to think about or not, that's reality.<br><br>Don't you ever wonder about how different the world might be if the top 1% of the wealthy donated, say, .05% of their yearly income to those in need? This article shows how little they'd suffer for it--they could get the $7,000 car wash instead of the $9,000 one. Or Paris Hilton could buy a $20,000 designer purse instead of a $25,000 one. Anyway, I'm getting well off the topic.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[PJ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2006 12:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/05/how-about-a-9-000-car-wash/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/05/how-about-a-9-000-car-wash/</guid><description><![CDATA[What if a bird poops as soon as I come out of the 9000 car wash?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Krishna Das]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2006 1:25PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
