Rich people! They just cannot shut up lately about how awesome they are and how everyone is out to get them. Last week it was spittle-brained lackwit Tom Perkins suggesting that the current mood towards our nation’s rich was just like Nazi Germany just before Hitler started shipping all the Jews off to death camps. Perkins was rightly excoriated for being a fucking idiot, though he did have at least
They also believe the wealth gives them the right to treat people who are providing them goods and services like shit. Even when their lives might depend on it. (I fantasize about being able to say things like: call that doctor a stupid cow one more time, honey and you might not get off the OR table in one piece. People in Russia will pay good more for other rich people's kidneys)
I'm surprised no one pointed out that not realizing people liked their cheap but useless insurance and saying that they would be able to keep it is just like shutting down traffic on a four lane bridge on the first day of school. Plus dead grannies because the ambulance couldn't get there in time. Yeah that's exactly the same fucking thing. due credit to Callyson: For Fuck Sake
When that snowstorm hit right after New Commie Mayor's inauguration, the howling butthurt from those zipcodes was a thing of joy. Apparently, New Commie Mayor was sposed to be out clearing their sidewalks personally, damn him.
I work just over the border in 10028, and I can attest that the snow was cleared as fast as usual that night. What the 1%ers were really whining about was the terrifying suspicion that in the new administration they might not get to keep all of their god-given perks, extras, speshul treatments, facials, handjobs, and fluffy red carpets.
Meanwhile, some dude wrote to the NYT from darkest Staten Island the next day, saying that for the first time in memory his street had been plowed immediately on the night of the storm.
In reality, De Blasio hadn't been in office long enough to have given directions about clearing either Staten Island or the UES streets. Also, he is not fucking vengeance-troll Chris Christie. But the howling butthurt was still sweet like sugar candy.
I can't speak to whether this holds true for Perkins and Zell, because I'd have to read about them to know, but a huge proportion of the 1% inherited their wealth. They've never worked a day in their lives and don't know what is meant by "labor" as a verb. They only know "labor" as "the collective name for the enemy." On the other hand, they ought to cook a lot faster, with their soft flesh. (Yeah, yeah, with votes or whatever.)
Operation Defend Wall Street will have Zell's and other billionaires mega-yachts surround lower Manhattan. Flights of Gulfstreams and other bizjets will fly in formation to show their solidarity for embattled super-rich. Let 2014 be the year the Job Creators stood up and said 'Enough is Enough'. 'Stop shaming us or we'll build another planet and leave you to die in your own filth. Most of which we created but whatever.'
His performance as a job creator is pretty shitty. He's part of the Mittens and Egg club, albeit he didn't save the Salt Lake Olympics.
That is a spoof site, you know?
I wondered which one of her songs she ruined for me this year by associating it with abused animals. So it's Angel, is it ?

Today we are all self obessed, whiny dickweeds. Now, if only we all had his money.

My Dad told me more than once a hedge fund isn't an investment vehicle - it's a compensation scheme.
Looks to me like the Grave Dancer made a grave error.

Zell agrees more infrastructure spending needed on eye of needle widening.
He needs to do something about that massive bowel obstruction. Or brush his teeth at least.
