Ed,
Allow my to clarify something for you. My use of the word "priviledge" means some thing that is granted to one and earned via actions or deeds vs a right which is something grant by law. These definitions and use are consistent with the Webster's.

I choose a career in the forklift truck industry and always felt I was priveleged to hold every position I held. Likewise, I have a driver's license it is a priviledge to have and I have to work to keep it - it is easy just follow the rules and regulations. In my view one should do the same no matter what position one holds.
