I really enjoy Oliver's show

damn good researchers and he really knows how to use satire and sarcasm to make some damn good points. And I think those points actually have a factual basis to them, which is unusual in this age of agenda driven corporate propaganda. Careful, watch John too much and you'll become smarter and better informed. Hence I posted the youtube on my FB page.

Having been "fortunate" enough to have lived much of my life among the middle to upper management class, believe that I know just how viciously without conscious and realistic sense of empathy many of their "superiors" are. Worse is the sincere belief of those who have attained their middle level of success through hard work and talent, that they'll ultimately go all the way. Without nepotism or a truly heartless drive (think Don Blankenship) it's highly unlikely. Still, life is good for those guys compared to the millions who sincerely think that they have a good chance to win the lottery.

I liken it to the guys in the mail room listening to Limbaugh and believing if they can talk like him and think like him than they can become Chairman of the Board. If only the right people hear them. It's all about ATTITUDE.

Yeah sure,....and Reagan brought down the Berlin Wall with the power of his mighty mouth.

The weird thing is, after the rich "win" by inheriting a fortune, they insist they "earned" it.

The best of the lot were ordinary. The worst were either insane or sleazy.

We should impose high taxes on large estates at the time of the death of the holder of the estate.

I don't believe in confiscatory taxes even on large estates, but based on my experience, we should use the tax revenue our government receives upon the death of very wealthy people to give opportunities to people not born into wealth.
