The short article I read this weekend about JK Rowling, and how she views staying in Britain as "patriotism" -- because she pays taxes that help out people who are struggling, much as she was before the Harry Potter books came out. She believes in the welfare state and since she benefitted from it, is happy that her taxes do the same.
I know. It's not worth crying over. But I have real respect for this women for this and several other things she's said publicly.
And, you know, that she's got some serious marketing savvy. Not to mention some good ideas for books.
Seriously if I could be her I think all would be well with the world.
