The children are distressedHarry visits many communes
Chapter 12
Then the children were sore distressed,
2And could not think of anything to say,
3Because they were not very quick-witted,
4At all,
5And so they looked at Harry with a lot of tragic looks,
6And tears slipped down their cheeks as he got into his Silver Cloud,
7And they surged forward eagerly when, just before closing the door, he poked his head out to say,
8On this day, you have had an important lesson,
9From fHarry.
10If you care about having money and gthings,
11hDo not lie to yourselves about it,
12And cloud your heads with lots of stupid ideals,
13iBecause you are not that smart anyway,
14And if you want money and things, you had better jadmit it to yourself,
15And do whatever is necessary,
16kNo matter who gets hurt,
17And forget about the lmasses,
18Because you’ve never even met them,
19And if you had, you would find that they don’t care about you,
20And they would cut your throats for even the slightest chance at ten thousand dollars in cash,
21And don’t you forget it.
22Is that a good enough lesson for ten thousand dollars?
23Well then, here’s something for free:
24mIf you want to nshare something, share the wealth,
25Because the Most Chosen Nation on Earth has plenty of it,
26aSo much of it that you can share it without even really working for it,
27But not if you’d rather share bpoverty instead,
28Which is completely free,
29cBecause nobody with any sense wants it,
30At all.
31And then Harry ddrove away.
