""In any case, fire burns; that's its nature, and you can't expect to change that. You can use it to cook your meat or to burn down your neighbor's house. And is the fire you use for cooking any different from the one you use for burning? And does that mean you should eat your supper raw?"
Maddy shook her head, still puzzled. "So what you're saying is . . . I shouldn't play with fire," she said at last.
"Of course you should," said One-Eye gently. "But don't be surprised if the fire plays back.""— Joanne Harris

I saw that one, too. I flipped through it, curious. It turns out that with little things like rental properties that aren't renting and stabling and care for their little girl's horse, they just can't seem to make ends meet.
I just want to smack people.
I haven't read the article, but Leelu's brief synopsis and the headline itself might actually be enough. Eat the rich.
