I'm not.
I'm speaking the truth, as I do.
I'm asking you not to put yourself down.

As an afterthought, I should explain to those who don't know (or remember) just who Jo Lustig was. That is to say, a profit-obsessed impresario whose sole interest in performers was what he could make: Mr 45% took that proportion of fees for himself (that's excluding costs and expenses), after ordering his acts to perform just how and what he said.

There's no-one comparable around today but as long as an attitude of "who cares, it's good enough for . . ." hangs on like a bad small, so do the dangers. And I'll be opposing them. Wherever.
