More Dispatches from the Idiot Culture

'One of my greatest passions is making deals. I love to make the big score and the big deal. I love to crush the other side and take the benefits. Why? Because there is nothing greater. For me, it is even better than sex, and I love sex. But when you hit, when the deals are going your way, it is the greatest feeling! You hear lots of people say that a great deal is when both sides win. That is a bunch of crap. In a great deal, you win--not the other side. You crush the opponent and come away with something better for yourself. In negotiations, I love to go for the complete win. That is why I have made so many good deals.'
