    SoFla Kate

    no difference, except the Hamptons whores are the wives, and as such will not end up seeking medical care for AIDS at a free clinic on a bus. Also the children of the Rich Witches will go to private schools and be debutantes, instead of dropping out of school, being beaten/raped by mom's clients/boyfriends, becoming hookers themselves at the age of 12, etc. etc. etc.

    In other words, all the difference in the world, and none.
