Crazier still is the appropriation of the story as something that directly impacts tea partiers or the middle class. I’ve seen situations where they’ll try to evoke empathy/sympathy for these CEOs who’ve been “handcuffed,” “neutered,” or whatever other hyperbole. Many times individuals rage against actions that are specifically designed to help them, but they feel a closer match to the CEOs than themselves.
