Thus, with a system as unfair and corrupt as ours, and, until recently, with a populace as deluded about the benefits of capitalism as ours, is it any wonder that free market elitists have gone wild and feel entitled to glom billions of dollars while millions are broke and out of work?
And is it any wonder that George W. Bush, the quintessential, well-connected elitist who ran the country into the ground financially and ethically during his time in office, would feel entitled to wipe his sweaty hand on an ex-president's shirt?
Sure, it's funny--like something out of a Mel Brooks movie--but it's no joke. The super rich and well-connected have been doing it to average citizens in the U.S. for over three decades.
