And you're right about Shylock. He was the only one worthy of sympathy. he got screwed out of the deal because he was a Jew, when in reality he's only a businessman trying to make a buck. same as the rest of them.

FYI,
his "piss poor contract" is a subject of study at all decent law schools,
as it has ALL the elements of a good contract, and if it wasn't for a faker who proclaimed that "blow job is not sex",
he'd see his way thru
