Rush Limbaugh and Other People with Loathsome Careers
I think frequently how happy I am that neither of my kids pursued careers that represent net damage to humankind.
Obviously, being in the hate business, as Rush Limbaugh was, is near the top of the list, just below the tyrants, the hit-men, the sex-traffickers, and the televangelists. Yet there are other professions that are worthy of our contempt. Think about the people in cigarettes, land-mines, Big Oil, even soda.
I’m glad I don’t have to tell my friends that my son works for Coca Cola and is therefore in the the business of destroying human health; he’s especially focused on tooth decay, and is also methodically filling up our oceans with plastic waste.
