An interesting, perhaps plutocratic, view of wealth and class. “Common stock,” of course, has two almost opposite meanings, which we have gouged each other with in goodhearted fun. But “sin” cannot be so used. I find it appalling that you consider it a sin to perform the tawdriest of favours. I know many people performing menial tasks who have more class than some of the wealthiest. The two seem unrelated.
