A person who follows the social and political philosophy of Compassionate Bastardism.
A Compassionate Bastard wants to live in a world where it is not necessary to be confronted by beggars or demands for handouts from charities. Governments are responsible for proving for their citizens and in a Compassionate Bastard system you could be as big a bastard as you liked, focussing on your own well-being and lifestyle reassured that everyone’s basic needs would be taken care of, yet not feel that you are being taken advantage of with over-taxation or rewarding of the lazy.

Compassionate Bastardism 

It is a social and political philosophy which encourages people to face up to their own rather nasty human nature and describes policies to protect society.

Since that time the President has used compassionate conservatism as his governing philosophy as the Administration has moved to tackle some of society's toughest assignments, such as educating our children, fighting poverty at home, and helping poor countries around the globe.”

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
