Tom Perkins makes me sad. He was a hot-shit techie and biz guy way back in the day. He made his fortune mostly by being ahead of the curve. Kleiner Perkins wasn't, for the most part, a vulture organization. They did actually support the creation of quite a few jobs (although most of the "million" would inevitably be offshore).
Now he's even older than me, and his fee-fees are hurt, and he's doing a wonderful impression of an out-of-touch super-rich asshole.
Tom, dude, you <i>won</i>. You&#039;re richer than fuck, you&#039;ve probably fucked anybody you ever wanted to, and you&#039;re still goddam alive to enjoy life a little more. You were even lucky enough to be too young for WW2 and too old for Vietnam, so you don&#039;t have to have any guilt feelings about military service. Chances are, some of your bucks came courtesy of gaming the tax system, but most people don&#039;t hold that against you. What&#039;s done is done -- we&#039;d only like to correct the rules of the game going forward.
While you will have a happy rest of your life, you&#039;re gonna be dead fairly soon. At this point, I&#039;d say there&#039;s no chance you&#039;re gonna be confused with Nelson Mandela, but unless you actually aspire to be held in the same esteem as Donald Trump, I&#039;d suggest you STFU.
This line of reasoning is akin to what the priests would say to the congregation. &#039;Don&#039;t worry about your sorry life in this realm, you&#039;ll be rewarded in heaven. If you do what you&#039;re told&#039;.
eggzactly- just like Trix isn&#039;t responsible for Pareene&#039;s dumb comments about MM because...
WAIT
(good thing you guys still don&#039;t allow comments or you&#039;d be changing the name of the place faster than a West Virginia chemical company)
You&#039;re right . . . I looked through my dad&#039;s old <a href="http:\/\/www.thisisdisplay.org\/images\/made\/bookimages\/sutnat_amplumbing1_700_525.jpg" target="_blank">American Standard Bible</a> , and it definitely ain&#039;t in there.
I remember the Traina. That was a lot of years ago. I guess Tom picked her up later.

Snark shaming?
Yacht polisher, wine bringer, tax accountant, number-of-homes rememberer, dancing horse podiatrist, mistress, etc.
He&#039;s just in it to create jobs.

Better ... it&#039;s more likely to work out to your advantage.

Goddamn tenors.
Damn, those guys are good.
Edit: and, by &quot;guys&quot; in this case, I mean, &quot;women&quot;. It&#039;s an old habit.
last I checked, most of the people in D.C. (at least the ones she is referring to) ARE millionaires
Does that make MM a job creator then?
maybe we can corner the super rich on some playground, pin them down and give them a financial haircut
Oh, they took the class but failed it. Just like Adolf took and failed Russian Invasion 1812 101.
&quot;attract this sizable constituency&quot;
Tell a lie often enough...
