Nice for some
NEW YORK -- The rich had a great year in 2013, “with the top 300 seeing their collective net worth rise by US$ 524 billion to US$ 3.7 trillion as 2013 ended," Bloomberg said in its ranking of the world’s richest people published on Thursday.
Whilst we cut long t
erm unemployed benefits. and harm the economy by so doing.
Whilst we cut pensions for veterans and breaking our promises to them in the process.
By ensuring that those in work see their earnings decrease in real terms we are witnessing the destruction of the middle class that made our economy great.
By ensuring that the economic crash was felt hardest by the poorest and the young we a storing up problems for the future.
We cannot even decide that all our workers are equally deserving.
With our total disregard for our climate we are bringing problems on ourselves.
I'm so glad at least someone had a good year and can continue to buy both our politicians and media with increased ferocity.
Trickle down, yeah right........
Everyone but the rich becomes poorer, why it's almost communism.
For those abused,war torn and blood-soaked regions of the world: due to our apathy, our need for cheap shit, and our wars on terror and drugs, we apologize for the inconvenience.
Happy 2014.
