Yep, the class wars ARE upon us...
Another story about retailers

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/business/2924337>

For retailers, the start of the holiday shopping season was "tough for the masses — great for the classes," Davidowitz said. "It's a tale of two cities."

The well-to-do have money to burn, he said, while a family of four with a $40,000 income is "pressed tremendously" because of rising gas prices and health care costs.

Nope, no class war here...nothing to see, just move on... :eyes:

While you're struggling to pay your heating bills, the rich are throwing $100 bills into the fireplace.

:puke:
