Sure, some people are more skilled than others. Does that mean that Iginla is more valuable to human existence and everything we hold sacred than, say, Chris Simon? Absolutely ridiculous argument.

And when bums and hobos contribute nothing to society, but instead decide they want to suck on society's teat than be gainfully employed, then clearly, the person who does contribute to society is "better" than the other person. It's sad, but it's the truth.
I know you keep trying to pass off your opinion as 'the truth', but really, your opinion is only that, an opinion. Should you be allowed to go downtown with your sniper rifle and pick off all the homeless people? And then maybe receive a nice award from the mayor? That would be nice, eh?
