Palanquin used in a sentence

Palanquin in a sentence as a noun

No horses for the sprinter, or palanquins for the long distance runner, no team of people boosting you over the high jump bar. A tragic loss for the sportsman who can recruit nature's finest.

Today most of us are not dying from hunger in the first world but just go back in time a little bit and you can watch these "jerks" dining on abalones, shark fins, caviar while riding inside their cozy palanquin. They do leave some scrap left for the peasants though, enough to stay alive, work and pay tax.

I didn't mean literally celebrating like parading them around on a palanquin, but treating them with respect at the very least. Create an environment that at least allows some discussion about it, instead of indignantly shutting these topics down upon hearing the first syllable.
