Who do you think keeps the waterways open for the yachts that the rich play one? The Army Corps of Engineers and the Coast Guard. Who do you think keeps the airways safe and operating for the private jets of the wealthy? The NTSB and the FAA. Who do you think goes off to fight the wars to maintain the status quo of the ruling (wealthy) elites in the USA? The poor to middle class.

I can keep going. The rich don’t live in some Randian fantasy world were everything is payed for in a private system. They rely on public services and sacrifices just like everybody else does. And I’m sick to death of hearing people talk as if though we owe everything to the rich as if though we were squandering, worthless idiots. Especially in a country that was founded on the backs of blacks slaves and the slaughter of American Indians.

Can I get a special exemption to double-like this?
