I was watching Fiddler on the Roof tonight with the boys. We went to see it live but Eliana couldnt make it through the whole show so we only saw half, now we are watching the movie. Anyway, I was newly amused at the line about the Bible teaching through Lavin and Jacob that we should never, never trust an employer.

This film is marvelous. Our kids love, love, LOVE IT! They especially love to sing, "If I were a rich man."
Make sure your kids know the song too, because if they have your acquiescent attitude toward capitalism (employers) they're going to be poor. employers are not to be trusted, tova. that's lesson number one.
I just saw this post finally,
We can agree that this is a marvelous and culturally pertinant film.
Perhaps to your suprise we can agree that employers cant be trusted.
Actually, we agree up to the point of who we DO trust. I still believe G-d is in charge of it all.
I dont care if my children are rich or poor, as long as they are happy.
