Well, in all fairness, poverty is only winning its war because the rich are too self-centered to bother. If they’d relax their death grip on the country’s economy and actually be human for a change, then perhaps we could do something about it.

There’s an aspect to the psychology of a-hole billionaires that I just can’t fathom. Some of them have insane amounts of money and are quite old, yet still work really hard every day to screw the rest of us. What gives them that drive?

For instance, I understand why someone making $25 thousand or even $250 thousand a year would be opposed to regulation if they thought it would lead to them losing their job. They got bills to pay.

But why do the billionaire owners of the places those people work, who have virtually infinite money, seem so desperate to make that infinity + 1?
