Great TV

Oprah is such a sweet heart, but she is definitely a product of her times. The way she goes about "loving" people is wonderful showbiz and she even says that what she (Oprah) does she does because it makes her feel good.

The other day, she "loved" a lady who worked at Starbucks by giving her a house and toys and furniture for her and her 9 children/foster children. All I could think of is, who is going to pay the taxes on that increased wealth when Oprah leaves?

That same amount of money could have been spent on college or tech schools for all of them which would have then enabled her and her children to give themselves (and others) houses and toys and furniture. She could have "taught them to fish".

Instead, Oprah "gave her a fish" - but it made great TV and it made Oprah feel good.
