I think the cut-off for eternal damnation should be 100K and should be increased at the same rate as the annual inflation rate.
 
This should exclude all overweight passions.
 
Of course Ferrari is exempt as it is God's own car,

Thanks for explaining it.
 
Although everyone in the society should contribute, I think Rich have more responsibility.
 
We should remember what God said, that the more capable are also more responsible.

I think things in France are changing and they will change more rapidly towards our no-holes barred Anglo-saxon Economy.
 
 
The question we must ask is will Anglo-American economic style evolve into something more narcissist or will it become more ethical.
 
In other words will there be more enrons or will there be more
GEs.

LOL...about the ferrari's....
 
I agree...those who have more..may have a civic duty to do more...
 
or as they said in Spiderman: " to those with great powers, comes great responsibility."

I agree. Lest us pray the Almighty to send to hell anyone buying for less than 100k. The uneducated, helpless mass buys cheaply produced cars that clog our roads and look anonymous. Only those who value the cars enough and pay the real money should be allowed to have a taste of Heaven.
 
This should exclude anorexic reasons.
 
Of course, the 2CV is exempt...

I would suspect that being stuck with a 2CV is the equivalent of purgatory.
