representing this malicious government. But I guess if you're rich enough to own a building that trump and the rest of the evil salivate to buy, for whatever reason, then you're probably one of them anyway... and just want the money. Democracy, humanity, ethics be damned.

Money is the root of all evil. And until we can find a way to rein in people's greed I fear we'll always be at the mercy of Evil.
