Jim Cramer just went absolutely ape-shit on my teevee. It was pretty cool..
One of the things he's upset about.. is that one single "executive" (and I don't recall the name) made more money last year than all the line workers of "big 3" automakers.. combined..
But.. but.. Douggie sez we're trying to "punish success"!
Yes, in America.. "success" is measured by creating closed environments in business in order to give each other vast sums of money. That's the point of "Ivy League".. that's the point of family relations in business.
It's simply how money works in America. Sure.. you can work hard and make a few hundred thousand a year on your own.. You might even invent Youtube and make a gazillion dollars.. but the fundamental structure of wealth in the United States is a closed system that methodically funnels money within it's own system, and actively works to deny wealth to those that earn it for them.
Short of all-out class warfare... that will never change. For most people, your only hope is to carve out your own piece of "few hundred thousand a year" and live comfortably. For the vast majority in reality, living paycheck to paycheck and having a roof and food is success.
People like Douggie will blame you for your own situation.. it's all your own fault that you couldn't figure out a way to make the "big money".
After all.. you cannot have rich people unless you have poor people. Or, as Douggie sez.. the natural consequence of winning, is losing.
I don't want to hear anybody bitch about the UAW.. because those that do.. are douche bags.
