I’m not talking about your cousin who drives a Mercedes, has his own
insurance business, and always picks up the tab when you go out for
beers. I’m talking about super-rich people: the Walton family, the Koch
brothers and, yes, the Trumps. I’m talking about people who continue to
make money off the backs of the poor while convincing those same people
to remain loyal no matter what. But the truth is they are never going to
share or trickle down their money to you — regardless of how white you
are, how loyal you are, or how much you support their companies or their
politicians.
When
a family like the Waltons, worth over $50 billion — that’s billion with
a “b” — are fine knowing their employees are collecting food stamps to
survive and they do nothing about it, that speaks volumes. It says loud
and clear: I don’t fucking care about you!
When
Donald Trump was willing to close down and bankrupt multiple small
businesses because he couldn’t be bothered to pay his bills, all while
living in a gilded penthouse and flying around New York City in a
helicopter, that screamed: I don’t fucking care about you!
