Rage of the Rich

[Via wldrose , an Op Ed from todays Times]

Anger is sweeping America. True, this white-hot rage is a minority phenomenon, not something that characterizes most of our fellow citizens. But the angry minority is angry indeed, consisting of people who feel that things to which they are entitled are being taken away. And they’re out for revenge.

No, I’m not

I skimmed this because I can't handle this level of privilege. Like the middle class don't work hard. Or the working poor. I'm all for being rich. I would be a big liar if I said I didn't want to be rich! But I can't handle this sort of myopic whining. Boo fucking hoo.

How true
How sad
How greedy
How sick.

Right Wingers swear that evil exists
I guess they would know!

Hello Bobby, and welcome to my LJ.

Yes, I agree. In many ways we see the world as a reflection of who and what we are, and those who most see evil do so because it lies most within them.
